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! Seafood is not my cup of tea at all!! I have never liked seafood, despite many attempts by my husband to convert me into a lover of all things fish, shrimp, crab, etc. The only thing worse than fresh fish is leftover fish being microwaved at work. Eww!!

    I love seafood, but I grew up in Alaska and if you didn’t eat seafood, you were missing half the protein served. My husband makes amazing smoked salmon – even had a DIY smoker. Alas, we don’t live there anymore – maybe someday again.

    FISH ME! I pretty much like most seafood except for scallops…they are a little too slimy. However I realize as I get older my tastebuds have changed quite a bit so I am always down for trying something new. :)

    FISH ME! Fishs Eddy used to have a store in the town where I grew up and I used to go in there when I was a kid (when we were in town) and tell my friend that I wanted to buy their dishes when I grew up. Sadly, it closed. Was in NYC many years latter and stumbled on flagship store. Told my hubby about the story and we got a bunch of goodies to take home. We have their hula collection. LOVE.

    FISH ME! I love seafood! I cooked a fish one time not knowing that you should “peel” or “scale” off the skin. I thought you were supposed to eat it that way so we all at it…my husband and 4 children! Needless to say, I don’t cook fish like that anymore-UGH!

    FISH ME! I like some fish now and then, as long as its prepared so that it downplays the “fishy” taste. I think I like shellfish better than fish; shrimp, scallops, clams = yummy. Never liked lobster though! I’m a cheap date :-)
