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 hate all things seafood. I occasionally make an exception for fried shrimp, and there was this one time with fried catfish, but I chalk it up to peer pressure.

    I’ve never been a shellfish girl(makes me a cheap date), and fish is just okay. I try to make it once a week because I know it’s good for me. Plus, The Dad and The Kids LOVE all things from the water. BUT, I think we’re off anything that swims for awhile after The Dad’s bout with a fish tapeworm a couple weeks ago. Holy mother, flippin’ disgusting!

    Fish me! I’ve never liked fish. I think it might stem from the fact that when I was growing up my mom cooked salmon in the microwave…not appetizing at all. Now I’m a vegetarian, but it I weren’t I think I’d give fish a try again because it didn’t get a fair chance in childhood. Oh well.

    I used to hate seafood when I was a kid. I have slowly been trying more and more dishes though. Love shrimp, scallops, and most sushi still working on ordering fish when we go out to eat… and after a recent visit back to my home state of Maine… LOBSTER is NOT worth the hype or the price :)

    FISH ME! I’m one of those folks who’d eat fish all the time. I don’t even mind cooking lobsters or peeling shrimp and crawfish. Some of the more exotic seafoods (like geoduck!) seem weird to me, but I’d be curious to try them.
