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 (baby, one more time)!

    Shrimp and calamari and crab are my dear friends. Fishy fish, I’m still warming up to. It’s a process.

    I love most seafood (shrimp, crab, lobster, etc.), but I’m choosy with fish. I will not eat shark — after dissecting one in high school, I just can’t manage to choke it down. Blech!

    FISH ME! I love seafood and usually stick to classics like salmon, trout and tilapia. It’s on my “to do” list to try new varieties. I love keeping the recipes simple (e.g., olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper) to accent the flavor of the fish!

    Fish me! I don’t really dig on seafood, because it really skeeves me out. And I found out last year, after 29 years of being skeeved out by shrimp and then being brave enough to try it, that I am allergic to shrimp. Womp womp womp.

    My husband and I both hate seafood. Neither of us eats any of it, at all, no exceptions. It works really well that we both feel that way, but people are usually appalled when we tell them. It’s gotten to the point that we’ve actually started saying we’re allergic to avoid the judgment and “but have you tried THIS fish” questions. *cringe*

    Fish me, please! And about the seafood thing… I don’t like it. Like, at all. I normally tell everyone that I don’t eat anything that lives under the water because then they assume it is a religious or spiritual statement. Ha!

I’m embarrassing thrilled that it’s your giveaway. and I love me some seafood: sushi, paella, cioppino, shrimp cocktail, fish & chips, tuna sandwiches, fish sticks, whatever!

    Weird … just got off the phone with my best friend. We both ended up on the East Coast this summer where I tried lobster and oyster for the first time. And it’s official: I hate seafood. It all tastes fishy. Gross!

    But hubs and I did end up with hilarious video footage of us eating raw oyster for the first time. Bleck.

    But I LOVE FISHS EDDY!!! Haven’t been there in ages. Used to go to the broadway store when I lived in Manattan. Those skyline dishes could remind me of my pre-kid single days in the city. GREAT giveaway!

    I love some fish. I mostly enjoy salmon, tuna and shrimp. Never thought that lobster or crab were worth the investment of time or the mess. However, I love fish themed stuff and am totally digging the Charley Harper patterns – excellent choice!

    FISH ME! Up until about a year ago I never ever ate fish with the exception of one tuna fish sandwich when I was about 5 and a few helpings of fish sticks. Now I can’t get enough of that flaky goodness (still not a shellfish fan though).
