***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.

- BONUS QUESTION: … if you could pick your age, what would you magically like to return to (or travel to the future for)? Would you love to be 11 again? Or would you give anything to relive your early 20s? Maybe you just can’t wait to settle into a relaxing retired life in your 60s or 70s?

AGE ME!!! I would love to be a kid again probably around 8 years old when I lived across the street from my best friend and we played together every day!
Jessica says
AGE ME! I gotta say things are looking good right now in the mid-upper 20’s.
Missy says
Age Me… If I had to choose an age to go back to, I think I’d like to be 25 again. Did a lot of traveling, graduated, got married- It was an exciting year.
Colls says
AGE ME!
I’d be 25. That’s only 2 years from now, but by then, my boyfriend and I will be married and together instead of thousands of miles apart, thanks to the U.S. Navy. I’d LOVE some money to Crate and Barrel to start collecting fun pieces for starting our life together =)
Jenny says
AGE ME!
I’d love to go back to 18 and relive college, with a completely different major!
Leigh says
AGE ME!! Definitely 16 years old!
Evan says
AGE ME! I am really liking where I am, so I would stick with 33 for another six months… Welcome to your thirties, Sherry. I think that being a woman in your thirties is great – there is so much hype around it, but it turns out that once you are thirty, other people start to take you more seriously and you can both take yourself seriously and not take yourself too seriously. Plus, you can totally stop caring what anyone else thinks. So happy birthday to you and way to go being proud and out there on your blog with your birthday – great role modeling.
Christy says
Age me! I like my 30s now. Welcome to the club Sherry!

Vicki says
AGE ME!
I would love to be 5 again. I have so many great memories of loving school and playing outside in the sunshine with my sisters. Completely carefree, no concept of self esteem, and super creative!
Andrea H says

Mary says
Age Me!
I’d say I’d be 10 again – all my best friends lived in my neighborhood, school was still easy-peasy for me, and things were pretty much awesome – but then I’d have to go through middle school again. No thanks! 14 was pretty good for me, too, so we’ll go with that. :-)
Araceli ,Torres says
Age me
I would be 24 and planning my wedding again.
Nicole Evans says
AGE ME! Happy Birthday, Sherry! My birthday is this coming Sunday – turning twenty. On first thought I would beg to be 13 again, to redo junior high and high school without medical issues, but I’ll say I’m very happy with where I am right now. If it weren’t for the illness, I wouldn’t have become so close to my boyfriend, and right now I’m at a point in life where my independent nature is taken seriously!
Jen says
Age Me! Although I am approaching my 30th birthday very shortly with excitement for the future, I think I would go back to age 17 and attempt to live less of a selfish life and live more in the moment. I work with so many amazing high school students daily and I look up to all they are during what can be very difficult years!! :)
Christine Cohen says
Age me! I love being 23, although sometimes the idea of retirement sounds pretty nice!
Justin says
Age Me!!
I’d love to be 10 again with no responsibilities
Melissa T says
AGE ME!! I loved being 22 with a world of possibilities in front of me! Although at 29, I wouldn’t change anything about having my baby boy, my husband, our puppy and a new house to decorate. I suppose I still do have a world of possibilities in front of me!! :)
Goldie says
AGE ME! I loved being 19!
Laura says
