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 love fish, shrimp, and clam chowder. I’m not a big fan of scallops, lobster, oysters, or clams without the chowder. :)

    FISH ME – The only seafood I eat comes in the form of sticks, patties, or nuggets. I think it is because things taste fishy, but I really haven’t even tried a lot.

    I am vegetarian, so I don’t eat any fish…although I have indulged a few times in the past 8 years (I figure that if I’m really craving it, then my body must need it).

    No seafood for me! I try a shrimp or a bit of lobster every couple of years just to make sure I still don’t care for it.

    We LOVE seafood.
    Fresh mountain caught fish by Eric is pretty darn wonderful.
    And Jill grew up in MD, as a child, when asked what her favorite food was, her response would be “crabs”.
    As an adult, shrimp is probably now her favorite (and most versatile) seafood by a land slide.

    I’m generally big on seafood but nothing is better than fresh Maine lobster. I remember my grandpa bringing them home in a trash bag, and then adding aspirin to their pots so “they didn’t feel anything.” Which, is actually very twisted, come to think of it, but man they were delicious.

    Growing up on the atlantic coast and now living near the pacific coast, I try to only eat sustainable seafood. Love ahi tuna, but they are overfished – so I leave it (boo hoo). And i never, ever eat farmed salmon – yuck!

    Since the smell of fish makes my husband nauseous I only get to experiment when he isn’t home. So far tuna and tilapia are the only two I like.

    FISH ME!!! I hope I “fish my wish” as we say in our family during rousing games of Go Fish.

    I love all seafood, especially in sushi form! Sadly, I overdid it a bit on shrimp while in Hawaii as a newlywed and haven’t been able to tolerate it since.

    Scallops are my absolute favorite though!
