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.

    Oh my goodness, at a restaurant in Florence, the waitress translated the daily special as “halibut.” Boy was I surprised when a completely whole, purple octopus (suction side up) arrived on my plate! I’ll NEVER forget real the meaning of “polpo.”

    FISH ME! I enjoy most seafood. A few years back though, while in New Orleans, I ordered a dish with shrimp, and the shrimp came with their eyeballs still attached… I now have to eat my shrimp fried to oblivion, sans eyeballs. :)

    I love seafood now, but as kids my brother and I insisted that “we hate fish!” It was years before we discovered my parents’ secret… All along we’d also proudly proclaim that our favorite dinner was “swordchicken!”

    We love seafood in our house, although Salmon is reserved for grill weather only — can’t take the lingering smell in the house.

    Fish me! Not thrilled with seafood, mostly because I’m no good at the prep and cooking; but I like chowder at the coast, and salmon once in awhile. Shrimp are creepy and gross. Won’t do shellfish. No crustaceans, either.

    Fish me! LOVE seafood. Clams, mussels, fish cooked any which way, crab, lobster, sushi, the list is endless; however, I do try to be mindful of the Seafood Watch list put out by Monterey Bay Aquarium to ensure I’m eating sustainable fish. Also, I live in San Francisco, so dungeness crab is big here – heading into the season in about a month!

    FISH ME! I never ate any seafood except canned tuna growing up, but as an adult I took on a concerted effort to learn to like it. Aside from clams and mussles (which are just too slimey), I’ve generally succeeded!

    As a kid I tried clam chowder and canned tuna, haven’t had either in many years, though. I am working up some courage to try some real fish one of these days.
