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.

    I love seafood of all kinds, but west coast sockeye salmon is my favourite. My family fishes salmon off the coast of British Columbia and owns a seafood store, so I never really had a choice. If you are ever visiting the area, check us out! http://bruces.ca/index.html

    I love seafood, but only when it’s well-cooked. I’ve run into far too many poorly-cooked college-dining-hall pieces of fish to trust just anybody to cook it for me. :)

    I LOVE seafood in all its many forms, as long as it isn’t old and smelly (and I prefer if it’s served without it’s face still, but it’s not a dealbreaker). Unfortunately, I can only get properly fresh fish when I travel to visit friends/family in Michigan/the East Coast, Miami.

    FISH ME! I don’t eat seafood at all. We never ate it when I was growing up because my mom always said, “I don’t eat things that swim in their own poop.” Totally grossed me out for life.

    Not much of a fish person (mainly due to the fishy taste). Though i’ve recently tried sushi (at the urging of some friends) and I really liked it. go figure.

    Fish’s Eddy has been on my NYC shopping list for some time. I will be in the city in a few weeks and it’s FIRST on my stop (after the Doughnut Plant).

    Fish Me! Love the Charley Harper pattern. My husband and twin sons love fish so I’ve gotten more on-board (pun intended) with eating it myself. Only white fish (tilapia or trout mostly) and never salmon. I do like other seafood, mussels and crabcakes especially.

    I’m from the Pacific Northwest so I grew up eating good seafood. I like a good cioppino or mussles. Grilled fresh salmon in the summer is a staple. And crab straight out of the crab pots dipped in butter… yum.
