Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Gone Fishing

Fab Freebie: Gone Fishing

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Our two lucky winners as selected by random.org are… Susie (who doesn’t like fish, despite her former employment at Red Lobster) and Sarah (who especially loves Maryland crab, shrimp, salmon, and freshly caught smoked trout). Congrats ladies!

Back when I lived in Brooklyn there was this cool dishware store down the street called Fishs Eddy that I loved. Last Christmas I even bought Sherry two coffee mugs from there. And now, in what can only be called a full circle moment, we’re teaming up with them for a giveaway for you guys. They’ve got tons of fun colorful patterns so we’ve put together three around-$50 prize packages of our favorites: the Food Bank pattern (which benefits the NYC Food Bank), the always-classic 212 New York Skyline pattern, and the playful Charley Harper pattern. So each of our TWO winners will get to pick their favorite collection and take it home.

Fishs Eddy Giveaway

  • PRIZE: One of the following sets of Fishs Eddy dishware: (1) Food Bank set including dishtowel, two mugs, and a set of four sauce dishes, (2) New York Skyline set including salt & pepper shakers, a charger, and a set of four 15oz glasses or (3) Charley Harper set including one fish mug, three fish sauce dishes, and a set of four sunset glasses
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FISH ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …where do you stand on seafood? Have you never met a piece of salmon, fried shrimp, or crabcake you didn’t like? Or do you avoid fish like the plague (perhaps because it tastes “too fishy” or you’re a vegetarian)? Maybe you fall somewhere in the middle and only enjoy specific seafood dishes?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 5 at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States & Canada (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Fishs Eddy.

    FISH ME!!!

    I cannot eat crabcakes anymore… A few years back after a scrumptuous meal of a steak filet, mash potatoes and a crabcake side, I woke up with the flu the next morning and proceeded to throw up my dinner from the night before…and can still remember the horrible taste of the crabcake coming out. EWWW! I still get chills and throw up a little when I think about the taste. :(

    FISH ME! Adore big ol’ fried shrimp & crab cakes prepared in favorite restaurants!! At home, I like to bake-broil wild Alaskan salmon bathed in extra-virgin olive oil/lemon/onion/garlic cloves/cayenne pepper/sea salt & a bunch of tasty, organic herbs (cause it’s super easy & no-fail…Ha).

    FISH ME! I actually do not like seafood with the exception of a couple of sushi rolls (weird, I know). My husband loves it though, so I should probably make it more often.

    FISH ME! I love seafood, but there some bottom dwellers and fish that I will not eat. I am all about sustainable agriculture, and aquaculture. There are some fish/seafood which we are overfishing and will make extinct shortly (do you remember orange roughy? Totally overfished). Everytime I am at the supermarket, or at a restaurant, I carry my seafood guide with me. For me, I don’t feel right not knowing that what I am eating may be causing the oceans to become depleted and barren. Here’s a link to the guide: http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/cr_seafoodwatch/download.aspx. There is even an i-phone app. How awesome is that?

    FISH ME! I am so-so with fish… I stick to shrimp, salmon, and white fish, and don’t get too adventurous (unlike my dad, whose idea of a good Christmas stocking stuffer is a can of sardines or oysters… blegh!)

    I guess I’m a “pescatarian”. Fish is the only animal flesh that I will eat. And I love all of it, especially shellfish, especially lobstah!

    PS – Fishs Eddy is one of my faves in NYC – I try to fit something potentially breakable from there in my luggage whenever I can!

    I’m a non-fish eating vegetarian. I just don’t like the taste.

    The contest is super-cool though because my sister and her fiance just moved from Denver to Brooklyn! I’d love to give them a housewarming gift that has a special connection to their new neighborhood.

    Well, being the very picky eater that I am, I’m not too fond of seafood. Although to be honest, I really haven’t tried all of it either. I guess I should get out there and try some more fish to see if I dig it or not :)

    I’m a huge seafood fan. I always feel good after I eat it, like I got protein but not weighed down. Unless I ate lobster smothered in butter. In that case I feel happy, but not healthy. I make a super simple broiled salmon topped with spices that’s delicious!
