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! I have loved Charley Harper since living in Cincinnati for a couple of years, and would LOVE to see his happy designs staring out from my cupboard just waiting for some coffee, orange juice, or yogurt with fresh fruit. What a great start to the day!

    FISH ME! Um…I hate seafood. All kinds. But every year we travel to Florida for vacation and I’m determined to like it (my husband loves it). So I try something new every day, then remind myself how I dislike it. I say never again…until next year.

    FISH ME! Seriously, I looove Charley Harper’s work! Please pick me, random number generator and lovely Petersiks.

    I grew up in the desert where fresh fish was a rarity, so I lived without and mostly feared most seafood well into adulthood… I found sushi (and Fish’s Eddy too!) when I lived in Brooklyn in my 20s (samesies!) and have never looked back unless it is to stare at/covet other people’s sushi. I live in NC now and we have amazing seafood here and I want to eat it all.

    I love seafood. All types, even the super scary stuff. Coming from a Scandanavian household and traveling throughout Asia for work has put lots of sea creatures on plates in front of me and I can’t remember a single time I’ve backed away!

    I am highly allergic to seafood and shellfish….so, except for the one time I tried shrimp as a child and wound up in the hospital, I have never eaten it. I do get a little envious when I see my sister eating salmon and I have chicken instead!!

    FISH ME! I love to surf fish, but oddly do not love to eat everything I catch. Given my choice, I’d take sea trout. Otherwise, I’m happy to be treated to fresh tuna, dolphin fish (mahi mahi, not dolphin), good fried grouper, and crabcakes. Not the kinds of things I have often, but total treats when I do!

    FISH ME! I must admit, I’m not a big fan of the ocean dwellers. Generally, I prefer not to swim with them, or eat them. Something about the scales creep me out…. But once in a blue moon, I’ll indulge in a good fish and chips. But I love Fish Eddy!! I have a set of Italian wine glasses from there and I love them!!

    My dad was the captain of a commercial fishing vessel nearly all of his working life (think “Deadliest Catch”, except fish instead of crabs. he even knew some of those captains), so it goes without saying that I’ve had plenty o’ fish in my life!
