First off, thanks for all of the birthday wishes everyone. Second, random.org has selected our winner as… Lee (who just turned 31 and is so far happy with it). That’s good news for us too, since we’re both staring down at 31 now. Congrats Lee!
Guess what today is? Sherry’s 30th birthday! And to celebrate, Crate & Barrel is gonna give one of you a Benjamin to spend for every decade that Sherry’s been alive (that’s $300 in case your math skills are in a post-lunch slump). And that’s not the only thing Crate & Barrel is giving away these days. They’re also in the midst of their Pick Your Page sweepstakes where one winner will score all of the items featured in any spread from their new Spring catalog.

Yvonne says
Age me! I like being 29…I would like to remain in the 29-31 age range forever :)
Stacie says
Age me! I will be turning 30 this year too, and I think 30 will be pretty great.
Heather says
AGE ME
Virginia says
Age me! I guess about 20 would be good. I have a lot of good memories of tht age.
Brittany says
AGE ME
I like what the previous poster wrote about that last year before junior high! It feels like I brought too much stress on myself between 13 and 27 worrying about my looks and if I was cool and having the best stuff. Now I seem to be reverting back to that young mind where I love myself more and embrace my flaws! Bring on the 30s!
Leslie says
AGE ME! I don’t know if I would relive any age (maybe college years to be more social this time around), but I am 29 and am kind of looking forward to being out of my twenties – I still don’t feel grown-up…
meg says
Age Me! Id like to fast forward a just a few years when we have a whole brood of babies and a full and happy house! Happy Birthday SHERRY!
tracylee says
AGE ME!
I like where I am, but 20 was fun too.
Laura T says
AGE ME! I would love to be 5 again. Carefree, coloring, having fun!
Melissa says
AGE ME!!! I’m happy being at my current age of 30 :)
Allison L. says
AGE ME!! I would love to go back to my early teens. I have learned much about life that I think would have been nice to have learned during the high school/college years.
Jacque E says
AGE ME! Well, I am really loving life right now at 25, so it is hard to say where I would go! I wouldn’t go back, as I am finally getting my own two feet under me. But I am really looking forward to my 30s, as I think they will be amazing!!
Jennifer Sootkoos says
AGE ME!
Oh my, I would love, love, love this prize! I could live everyday in this store. Anyway, I would like to go back to my mid-twenties. I had a blast during those times.
Peg says
AGE ME! I’d go back to 8, which was a wonderful, innocent age, or ahead to 60, which I expect to be as wonderful as age 8 was, but for different reasons! Kids finally on their own and settled, and not working myself to death…
Kati W. says
AGE ME! I am 23 but have always had a “thing” for the age 27. Maybe because it’s my lucky number? Not sure, but I feel like 27 is a perfect age when I’ll be married, settled and ready to start makin’ babies. What could be better? :)
Oh, and happy (late) birthday Sherry!
maggie says
age me!
i really loved being 17 for the most part–enough freedom, not too much responsibility, best shape of my life, etc. but i’m pretty pumped for 35 (if that’s random enough…) to see where i am in 7 years…age gets less scary the older i get =)
happy birthday, sherry!!
Corrie says
AGE ME! I know it sounds corny, but I actually wouldn’t change a thing. I think being a mom and being 32 is a great time in my life–I’m more comfortable than I’ve ever been with myself and who I am. On second thought, I might fast-forward to June when I will be finished with my dissertation! Almost. done.
Lissa says
AGE ME!
I think I’d go back to 27, when I first met my husband and we were little younger and fancy free…but for the record 31 is almost as good too!
Marinna says
AGE ME!
Happy birthday!
If I could go back to any age I’d go back to 21/22 and have my summers studying abroad.
Alison says
AGE ME please
Trish McCloy says
AGE ME!!! Believe it or not, I’d like to be 50, the magical year of retirement at my company. It’s only three years away, so it’s not as bad as it sounds. Then, I can spend my expanded free time on all the house/art/craft/sewing projects on my ever expanding to do list.
Rachael MccGuinness says
Age me…. don’t laugh but i would love to be back in high school… such a fun time without a care in the world!
Melissa says
AGE ME!
Back to 21.. an adult in most aspects, but still in college so free of some real world responsibilities!
Alina says
AGE ME! I love exactly where I am. 23, finishing up my 3rd year at a local ad agency (yep, I graduated from college when I was 20) and loving the first year of marriage to my beloved!
Happy birthday, Sherry!
Shirley says
Age me! Live over my early 20s. But not from a decor point of view!
NicoleK says
Age Me! =)
Happy Birthday, Sherry! 30 was a magical year for me… Met my hubby, engaged, married -awesome honeymoon travel- and pregnant – in that order =) haha! All before 31…
I can’t pick an age! Awesome memories and looking forward to so many things in the future. I might say go back to 28 -as that was a year where none of my friends or I had any real concerns… or fast forward to retirement & grandkids =)
Alyssa says
AGE ME!
I love the age I am (22!). I feel like I have so many wonderful things happening in my life. (Though I’d love to know where I will land post-graduation!)
Kim says
AGE ME
I would go back to 10 years old… nothing to do in the summers but walk to thep pool and swim all day, run around the neighborhood until the street lights came on, playing a game of capture the flag after dark! I miss those days…
Netty C says
AGE ME! I would be 29 FOREVER! Still young…but grown up:-)
Christina says
AGE ME! I’d like a do over of my high school years, maybe around 15 or 16. I was insecure and socially awkward…would love another shot at it, especially if I could retain what I’ve learned over the years.
Tad D. says
“AGE ME”
I think 27 was a good age for me.
Hilary says
AGE ME!!! My late 50’s parents are rocking it out right now! I think they’re finally at their most comfortable and happy. They are always going on fun date nights, taking lots of trips, and having great dinner parties. I’d trade all my 20-something angst about career and the future to be where they are! 50’s here I come!
Rachel Ray says
AGE ME! I’m having a great time right now at 27…happily married, own my home, getting ready to do some traveling, and no kids yet.
Mindy M. says
AGE ME
I’d like to go back to my early 20’s & do some things different. Although that might alter my current life, so I don’t know if I’d be willing to actually climb in that time traveling machine. :)
Happy Birthday, Sherry! I turn the big 3-0 in August. Let me know if it’s worth the dread I’ve had for the past seven months. I keep telling my husband (who turned 30 in December) that I’m going to be 29 and holding for at least the next five years.
Kristine says
AGE ME!! I am 31 and wouldn’t mind being 20 years older now. My daughter is only 8 months old and would love to take a sneak peak at how she looks as an adult and how she has matured. Plus that means our house would probably be an empty nest and my husband and I can do the traveling thing.
Kristin says
AGE ME!
I would love to be 25 again. I would have traveled more and done more adventures before having kids.
Jeanne says
AGE ME!!!
I’d love to be 18 again – out of high school, hanging with my friends, working an easy part time job, and riding my horse. But being 27 and a mom is pretty awesome, too!
Katie says
Age Me!!! I would choose to be 25! Finally making money and being taken serious, but still young and able to have fun!!!
Katie L says
Age me! I would love to be 30 for a few more years. Young enough to feel hip…old enough to be wiser than a 20 something.
Rachel says
AGE ME! I love my current age, 31, actually. Everything is great!
Colleen Irby says
AGE ME!!!!! Take me to 32 again…..30’s are the best years of your life. Your still young, and have some wisdom.
sarah says
AGE ME! happy birthday!! turning 28 in less than a month :)
Aubrey says
AGE ME – I would love to be 18 again! It was the most carefree time! =)
Jenn Baron says
AGE ME!!
I would not want to go back. I love where I’m at, 37 :)
Cristi C. says
AGE ME…or then again, how about let’s not! Happy Birthday Sherry!
Caitlynne says
AGE ME!
I think I would like to freeze time right where I am. I don’t want to get any closer to 30, but I like this stage of life…married with a baby…building our own family and traditions…it’s pretty perfect!
Happy birthday Sherry!
Sarah says
AGE ME- i’d love to back to 20/21 in college where i met my husband that year. such a fun time.
Carrie M. says
Age me! My 20’s were great but 31 is amazing and I’m excited to see what 32 brings!
Blair says
AGE ME. I would love to be 12 again. No worries, just riding horses all day.
