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.

    These are adorable! I love seafood, especially shellfish. Crab, lobster, scallops, shrimp. You name it! Never tried oysters though, I’m not into food that you slurp (unless you count a Slurpee, but technically that’s a beverage so I let it slide because they’re delicious!)

    FISH ME! I LOVE seafood, but living in Oklahoma- um yeah, fresh is not exactly on the menu when it comes from unda’da’sea. . . Whenever I visit family on either coast I am sure to eat up though and I don’t discriminate. Come one, Come all.

    I love almost all shell fish, ESPECIALLY crab, lobster, and shrimp. Yum yum yum! I also just got into fish & chips, but am still on the fence (on the hook, since we’re talking fish) about eating actual, non-fried fish.

    I have a complicated relationship with seafood right now. I haven’t figured out if it’s better to give up meat all together, and go completely pescatarian. That being said, all these new books about over-fishing and the plight of the ocean have made me sad too. It makes a girl wonder if there’s any way to have reasonable access to protein that doesn’t involve having a guilty conscience! But… I like meat way too much, in fish form or otherwise, to give it up completely.

    We eat all sorts of seafood, there are one or two meals on the table every week… mostly salmon as we are fortunate enough to have them swim the river that flows through town.

    FISH ME! I love pretty much all seafood except salmon. But perhaps salmon isn’t considered “seafood” because it comes from a river? Regardless, it is just weird to me. I think it may be the too-pink color . . .

    okay, this is funny. I never liked fish until I saw my Peace Corps assignment was The Gambia and, you guessed it, a huge part of their diet was fish. So, in the months leading up to my departure, I ate fish at every opportunity. As it turns out, fish isn’t such a huge part of their diet, but I love it now anyway!
