***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!!!
Ok, this is a trick question. 30 was the BEST year of my life…. was, until I got married last summer to a man who completes me better than I thought anyone could. Now I suppose 35 is the best as I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else!!!

Age me! I know it sounds hokey, but I actually really like the age I am right now, and I would like to keep aging at this rate!
Julia says
Age Me! :)
I would love to be 18 again. As the old saying goes, “youth is wasted on the young.” If I knew back then what I know now, I would have squeezed more fun out of my late teens and 20s.

Michelle says
AGE ME!
I would love to go back to 27!

I’m pretty happy with my age now, but I might go back to 26 and relive/redo the house hunting experience again….and I’d wait a few more months for the housing bubble to burst.

Candace G says
Age me! I love being in my late 20s, but wouldn’t mind sharing some wisdom with my 18-year-old self.
Dani says
AGE ME! It wasn’t that long ago, but I’d be 21 forever. That was the year I moved out of my parents house for the first time, I started graduate school, my job was fantastic, I loved the college town I lived in, I made some of my best friends, and I met the hottie I’m now married to. My mom was still alive, and oh, yeah, and I reached the legal drinking age! It was the perfect year.
