***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
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. That could earn you up to $15,000 worth of crate-y, barrel-y goodness! So feel free to pop over there to get in on that giveaway too.

Age me!
I think it would be nice to go back to 18 – so many life decisions to be made and so much fun to be in college.
Tracy says
AGE ME!!
I think I’ll just stick with my current age!
Kelli Baker says
I would definitely return to 24. I don’t know what it was about that age, but I could do it again!
Kelli Baker says
oh, and age me!
Jen T. says
18 – would love to relive college again!
Rena says
AGE ME!
I’d go back to twelve and play the days away!
Emily says
AGE ME!!!
I am in my mid twenties now and still kind of in transition. I think a few more years I will feel more settled. So maybe 30…
Erin says
AGE ME!!
I would love to travel back to age 9 or 10— I miss the ’90’s!!
Kathleen says
Age Me! Being 21 is fun, but to skip ahead to about 25 so I could be done with school and able to buy a house would be nice.
Abby says
Age Me! I’d love to relive my college days, so going back to 21 would be awesome. But I have to say I’m pretty happy to be where I am – 29 in two weeks.
Shaunes says
AGE ME
I would love to be 8 again! From summer camp to Girl Scouts to art classes; I enjoyed every moment of those innocent years.
Meggan says
Age me! I love being 36, how comfortable in my skin I am compared to teens and twenties, but if I had to choose, I’d probably go back to 22 when I first met my husband, fun days!
Laurie says
Age Me! My birthday is coming up and a gift card would make a great gift!
Sarah M says
AGE ME! I would go back to 15. High School was so great! I would want to go back with the knowledge I have now, though. Then I could make it even better.
Karen B. says
Age me! I’m looking forward to retirement, when I have all my ducks in a row. Come on, 65!
Lisa says
AGE ME! I’d love to be 12 again. I wrote my first “book” then, before I realized all the work that a real book would take. Ah, ignorance is bliss.
Jeanne Wagner says
AGE ME! … back to 23-ish. That was a good time. Happy Birthday, Sherry!
Carrie says
AGE ME! I think I might just pick 30 (my age now). Overall, the years keep getting better. Although, a close second would be around 4, when everything was new and magical.
Kathryn says
AGE ME!!! 22 was a good age :)
Dana S. says
AGE ME…I’d love to go back to 30! That’s the year I got married and moved to FL :)
Amanda Falk says
AGE ME!!!!! Happy Birthday!!! I would love to return to age 13 for just one day to sleep in uninterrupted by my kids, and play all day!!!!!
Erin says
“AGE ME”
I would love to go back to my early 20’s – after I got my first real paying job – when I had my own place. BUT, I would only go back if I got to take back the knowledge and confidence I have now so I could avoid the heart ache and trouble I experienced then. I would probably be trading the old trouble for new trouble, but still….
Casey says
AGE ME! I just turned 27, and I’m looking forward to the year ahead! :)
Juliane says
AGE ME! I would chose to be where I am right now. 42! I am comfortable in my skin and love the evolution of our family. I wouldn’t want to do over anything as I would never want to alter the outcome to now. :)
Nancy says
AGE ME! I think I’d like to be 25 again!
Jen says
AGE ME
Lib says
AGE ME
50 is fabulous!
Stephanie says
AGE ME!!
I’d love to be 30!

Age Me! Feeling pretty great about being 29. I think I’ll just stick with it :-)
Shain Z says
AGE ME!
I would love to be 14 again hanging out with with old friends not worrying about work, the mortgage or house keeping.
Teresa says
AGE ME!
I love this stage in my life at 33.
Jesse says
Age me!
I love being 23! 23 forever!!
Lisa says
AGE ME! I’m one of your older readers and I still find it hard to believe that I’m already 51! I would say early 40s. With age comes wisdom for sure, but after that the body starts sagging too much, ha! Love your blog and a very Happy Birthday to you Sherry!
Kelly Reber says
AGE ME!! I know this may sound crazy but I am perfectly happy right here at 40! Sometimes I think I’d like to go back and redo my twenties but then I remember how ridiculously insecure I was and what a pain boys were! Sometimes I’d like to fast forward my life to have my kids grown and have my free time back but then I realize how much I’d miss… so nope… keep me here! I’m a happy camper!
Maria says
AGE ME! I love my age right now, 25! =)
Chelsea says
Age me! I am pretty happy where I am right now at age 26.
Kristen says
age me please!
Chelsea Davis says
AGE ME!!! Well I’m 25 and my husband and I just bought our first house! YAY:) While Im elated with excitment I’d love to return to 12 to excape the anxiety of adulthood and dig that hole in the backyard again. Ya I know…a hole. It was a SERIOUS hole though. Not only did I find a suitcase…yep! I also found old marble chips that were left over from the entryway of our house. What an awesome summer!
Athena says
AGE ME! I must say, I’m happy where I’m at now (31). I have a 3 year old, and I see life through a whole new set of eyes, and it’s wonderful! I feel as if I’m a kid again, and I get just as excited as he does when we see a new pair of lightening mcqueen shoes!
Angela Wilson says
AGE ME!! I’m kinda happy where I am right now at 24!
kristin cronley says
AGE ME – I love my current age at 28!
Lisa says
AGE ME! I keep thinking going back to 32 wouldn’t be so bad, I would change a lot of things, I would have dated more, moved less, and paid off my credit cards at least 5 yeears ago.
Monica says
age me! I love my current age- 28!
Kristen says
AGE ME – I’d go back to 16 – I loved learning to drive
Lark says
AGE ME
I’d go back to age 15, sophomore year, first semester of high school. I remember feeling especially happy, confident and courageous at that age.
Katie says
Age Me! Probably the my 20-21 years (can I have 6 months of each?). That was the year I had a whirlwhind romance that I’ve never forgotten despite all the years. I went abroad for 6 months (and should have let myself have far more fun!!).
Tracy says
Age me!
I’d like to be back in high school again…I have a thing or two to tell high-school-me so my younger self wouldn’t sweat the small stuff so much.
Kate says
AGE ME! I would like to be thirty again!
Kimm says
AGE ME! Although I’d love to be 17 again, I didn’t know my husband then, so I think I’ll stick with the present.
AntiCookieCutter says
AGE ME. 50, it’s the best age.
Maria says
AGE ME! 19 yrs would be good.
