***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.

Suzy says
“AGE ME” Any age that leaves me happy and comfortable.
Briel K. says
AGE ME!
I’d want to go back to being 7. Right before my siblings were born and I was an only child still. (Not that I don’t love them. It was just a good time. haha)
Anne S. says
AGE ME! I’m actually pretty happy here at 24 … no complaints at all!
(Happy Birthday, by the way!)
Liz Massingill says
AGE ME!! I think I’d step forward into my future, to 32ish. I’m 27 now, and it will be interesting to see where my life has gone in five years. I also wouldn’t mind stepping back 5-7 years and do some things differently, but I am reasonably happy with how things turned out.
Jenni says
AGE ME! I love my age of 24. I’m right where I need to be.
Luz says
Age Me!!!
I just turned 29 at the beginning of the year and I’d fast forward to 30 because so many people have told me how great there 30’s are and it’d be nice to hurry up and get there.
Nicole says
Age me!
I wouldn’t choose to be any other age. I am 22, going on 23 next week. This part of my life is so exciting and I love all the new adventures we are going through! I have so much to look forward to :)
Sarah says
AGE ME… 4 weeks from now. My first baby is due! Can’t wait to meet him/her!
Karen says
AGE ME!
I’d love to be 16 again – I was young, skinny, naive and had so many wonderful years ahead of me. Although I am 30 now, and I absolutely love my life now (even if we are broke). :)
Katie says
AGE ME! I would stay the way I am, life’s good!
Elizabeth says
AGE ME
I think 35 is the perfect age! I’ve been 35 for 4 years now, I love it!
Lindsey Kuhn says
Age me. I’d like to go back to my early 20’s so I could redo my college education with the info I know now!
Amy says
Age me! I really like 33, actually…
Katrina says
AGE ME
I’m actually quite happy with my current age, but college could also be fun!
Stephanie says
AGE ME!
I’d love to fast-forward to my 30’s just to see what I’ll be up to. Hope it’s all good stuff!
Sarah S. says
AGE ME!
Happy birthday, Sherry! I hope you have a wonderful day!
I’m actually in a really good place right now. So I’m not sure I’d want to change it. All the kids are potty trained, the littlest one is getting ready to start school in the fall. Oh wait… Can I just go back to my early 20’s weight?! I’d take that in a heartbeat. But I had tons of school loans that weren’t paid off at that time. So I don’t want to be 20. I just want to weigh what I did in my 20’s!
Robin says
AGE ME! I love being the age I am right now, which is 33. Each year of my life has been better than the last. (And happy birthday!)
Kate says
AGE ME!
Happy Birthday Sherry! While settling into 30 was great, I’d love to go back to being college aged again.
Taylor Woods says
AGE ME! I’m loving being 25!
Roya says
AGE ME! I liked my high school years. It seemed I had everything I wanted and I was truly happy.
Andrea says
AGE ME!
If I could go back I’d be 18 again and choose a totally wild career path.
Wendi says
AGE ME! I’d like to skip ahead one year to 42 and know who our next child will be … knowing he/she will join our family through adoption and hopefully in my 42nd year.
Wendy says
AGE ME! I like my age right now…31. I’ve got two great boys and a wonderful husband, own my home and just finished my master’s.
Katie Rose says
Age Me!
What a hard question! I think I’d like to go back to 11 – my first year of junior high school. I was so shy and awkward! I think I could have made a lot more friends if I wasn’t so damn reserved. Don’t get me wrong, I had an awesome time in junior high, but I think it could’ve been just that much better :)
Katie says
AGE ME
I’d love to be a kid again, age 5 was a great year! But there are a lot of great things going on now at 29.
Christina says
Age Me!
I’d be 18 again!
Camila says
AGE ME! I would love to be 17 again and have back my pre-babies body.
Jen says
AGE ME! 16 for low-responsibility days with a driver’s license and friends and an earlier start on the instrument I ended up taking up six years later.
Rachel says
AGE ME!
I think I’d like to go back to 19, just for a little while. Long enough to do something truly epic, like climb a mountain or write a book. And then be able to say I did it while I was still a teenager.
Also, bills and full time jobs are rough. College was a lot easier! :D
Natasha says
Age Me!
This is sad, but I’d love to be 6 again, but with the knowledge and maturity I have now so that I could see my father and talk to him. He was so smart and he passed away suddenly when I was that age. Sorry to be a downer and have such a crazy response. Most days, I miss him like crazy, even though I’m now 26.
Dale says
AGE ME! I sometimes daydream about being in my 60’s and retired. I have a toddler at home and a baby on the way so the idea of being through the pregnancy/baby years sounds very appealing!
Mandi says
AGE ME!
I’d pick 21. No real-life responsibility, tons of fun with friends and mom and dad footing the bills!
Laura says
Age me.
I would be 16-18 again, old enough to have a bit of independence and have fun, but young enough not to worry about being a grown up with responsibilities.
Angela says
AGE ME
early twenties (wistful sigh)
Sarah fogler says
Age me!!! I am turning 40 in a few months and can’t wait for this next phase of life!
Ashley R says
AGE ME!
I’m really happy with my age right now (24, but 25 next month!) – I’m just happy with life, I guess – so I’d pick my current age…
Although I would love to relive my senior year in college, so maybe I’d pick 21 – that was a fun year :)
Katie says
AGE ME – 18 I would do a lot of things differently in college.
Debra says
AGE ME! I would love to be 18 again!
MS says
Age me!
I think I’d go back to 25. Was a good year for me!
Carbzilla says
AGE ME
I’d love to be 32 again. I was fit and had just met my now-husband.
Kara says
AGE ME!
I have to say, I’d be pretty happy to stick with my age right now – 24! I’m done with graduate school, living with my boyfriend in the city, and having a grand ol’ time!
Kerry says
AGE ME!!
At first I thought it would be fun to go back to the college years, but I think I’ll just stay in my early 30s so I can continue to enjoy life with my husband and beautiful daughter.
Kate says
AGE ME! I’m loving being 26!!
Paula says
AGE ME! I’d love to be a teenager again, armed with the knowledge I have now.
Amanda w says
I’d like to be 30 again. (I’m only 33.) But I’d like to be retired.
emma says
happy birthday sherry!!!
AGE ME! I love my current age but getting older I could do for an old fashion get all your friends together for cake and fun birthday party! Birthday parties when you’re older seem selfish to me, not sure why!
Katie says
AGE ME!! I really like the age that I am (22), but it would be fun to go back to 10 or 11 when I could climb trees to my little heart’s content.
Naomi S says
Age me
Turning 30 in two weeks, but so much to be thankful for. I do kind of miss 19 :)
teresa says
AGE ME-
I think I’ll stay exactly where I am… or perhaps fast forward a few months to what will hopefully be the coolest day ever on my 29th, 12/12/12 :)
Crystal says
Happy Birthday, Sherry!!!
“AGE ME” I love where I am in life now and my family. I don’t think I’d want to go back in time to when I didn’t have them so I’ll stick with my age now…39.
