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!

    And I don’t like any seafood at all! Well, unless you count hibachi shrimp, which I don’t, because they are drenched in soy sauce & butter and then dipped in yum-yum sauce, so…

    Fish me! We heart fish and try to eat it at least once a week AND take 6 doses of Omega-3 fish oil every day. It’s definitely fishy…

    Not a big fish fan. I did try halibut once though and kind of liked it so maybe there’s hope.

    (Does the number of !! increase our chances of winning?)

    LOVE seafood of all types, especially anything sushi or fresh caught by my uncle the professional fisherman. EXCEPT sea urchin sushi. If you try it, keep a barf bag nearby. Hubby is super snobby about crab cakes. Had them once in Baltimore and now won’t eat them anywhere else.

    I actually refused to eat fish from kindergarten through my graduation from college (too much time working on a boat in a fishing port), but I’m working my way back into it now. It’s too healthy to cut out entirely!

    I love fish, but the midwest isn’t known for fabulous fresh fish+ shellfish. I try to order it out instead since I don’t know how to pick it myself! I love going to Fulton Market ( in my sweet home, Chicago!), but usually still buy the frozen lobster tails and easy to pick shrimp… but the fishies were their heads on and bones in are a little intimidating!

    As for my stance on seafood, I prefer creatures of the deep (and not so deep) to swim happily in the ocean/lake/stream, rather than be cooked up and served on my plate. Yep, I’m a veggie.

    I do not eat fish (just too “fishy” for me) but I do love shrimp, crabs, lobster, and calamari! I live in Michigan so not much fresh seafood here, but I have a brother that lives right outside of Richmond so everytime we visit it is fresh crab night! Love!
