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’m a vegan, so I don’t eat fish anymore, but the funniest fish-related dish I’ve had was at a Thai restaurant that did only did vegetarian versions of Thai recipes. I ordered a ‘shrimp’ dish, and they served gluten mock-shrimp, with little pink stripes painted on by hand! So charming, but tasted nothing like the real thing. Love the blog!

    I eat seafood, but only at restaurants, for one solitary reason: my mom never cooked it, and therefore I have no idea how to properly cook it at home. Mine never tastes as good as a restaurants’. So I only eat seafood when we go out (rarely) unless you count fishsticks, which I can probably whip up if I really set my mind on it. ;)

    This month actually marks 4 years as a “pescatarian,” so the only meat that I eat is seafood. I’ve been known to eat crab legs on Thanksgiving instead of turkey. ;)

    FISH ME! I am a conflicted fish-eater. I eat mostly a vegetarian or vegan diet, but fish is my only “once and a while” animal product that I don’t feel guilty eating. Which is good when you’re living with someone who is from back east and can’t get enough seafood! :)

    I am middle of the road on seafood; some is way yummy and some is way yucky. I am 75% Viking (Swedish/Newfoundlander)so my stance on fish is generally frowned upon by the family. ;-)

    FISH ME! I gave up seafood a few years after going veggie in college. I don’t miss it much, but when I do slip–like in a bar last night with no veg-friendly items on the menu–it’s with seafood. I guess it seems less sympathetic than mammals, so I’m less squeamish about eating it. I mean, don’t all fish facial expressions look the same?
