***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.

Danielle says
AGE ME – I’d be mid twenties again.
Shannon says
AGE ME ~ I’m 20 now, I’ll be graduating from college next year and I would like to be 23. I want to jump a few years into my future so that I can start teaching and helping kids with learning differences. I have been working up to this point my whole life, I just can’t wait to t get started and make a difference. Also it is when I’ll be able to get my own apartment and start decorating!!! :)
Amanda says
AGE ME
If I had to choose, I’d be 23 again! I started my first “big girl” job, got married, my husband and I bought our first house, and I became a mom!
Happy birthday, Sherry! Mine is tomorrow :) Yay for Spring babies!
Julie says
Age ME! I would love to be 18 and heading off to college. My favorite year ever. I would be a college freshman forever.
Rachelle says
AGE ME! I would relive my 26th year, that is the year my daughter was born. I would love to go back and relive her first few months of life!
Jess says
AGE ME!! I would love to be 22 again–the age I moved to Colorado and started a completely new season of life.
Katie says
AGE ME!
Ohhhh 21…how great of a year you were. No wrinkles, less fat, and so much fun
Zada says
AGE ME!!!
I would love to be 18-19 again, back in college figuring out what you want to do with your life and partying it up without a worry in the world!
Vicki says
AGE ME! I’ve enjoyed every stage of life I’ve been in, and don’t think I would pick to “go back” or jump ahead!
Happy Birthday, Sheri!
Megan says
AGE ME! I would go back to 7 when the only thing I was worrying about was how many weeks until summer vacation!
Nicole says
Age Me!
anne smith says
AGE ME!! I would pick 7- that was a great year and being a kid again would be nice. :)
Sasha says
Age me! I am actually really happy with 27 and can’t wait to be 28 (my golden birthday). 26 was amazing, I got engaged and bought a house… so I guess that would work too!
alicia says
AGE ME! Probably 17, reliving some fun years!
Sarah says
AGE ME! Oh, man, it would be great to be 19 again, just for one year. It was such a great time in my life, away at college, experiencing the first tastes of independent freedom. But, I’ve got to say, being older definitely wins. I so appreciate the wisdom and all of the memories that have been lovingly gathered over the years.
Leah says
AGE ME! I’d love to be 21 and back in college again!
Lili says
Age Me! I’m 27, and actually, I’m pretty happy at the age I am. Although my rule of thumb was to get all of my baby-having over with by 30… and I’m tempted to have one more, even though I have a 6 week old…. so if I really could magically age, I might go back to 25 so I could feel comfortable with the time I have left to have just ONE more kiddo!
Ani says
AGE ME!
I’d love to be 9 again. So many fond memories of that year!
and happy birthday Sherry!
Evy says
Age me! I would like to be 31 over and over again. The pressure of 30 has passed and pressure of 40 is far far away.
Jayme says
AGE ME!!
I kinda love where I’m at right now (32). My kids are young, my career is hoping, my marriage is stable… it’s all good.
But I think I’d love to be a kid again too… maybe 5 or 6, before the world got complicated. Happy Birthday Sher-Dog! :)
Amy says
AGE ME! I’d relive either 18 or 27. Both were great years!
Lisa says
AGE ME! I’d go back to 23 and keep going to school.
Gayle says
AGE ME! I wouldn’t change a thing- life is good! Happy birthday Sherry!
Teri says
AGE ME! I really enjoyed 28. Owning a home and planning a wedding was really exciting!
Amy Endler says
AGE ME! I would love to be in my 20s again just for a little while to go back to that fun out all night dancing at the club- which is a long way from what I do at night now with a 10 month old!
Erin says
AGE ME! I might go back to high school…knowing what I know now I think it would be a completely different experience!
Erin says
AGE ME!!! I would go back to my early 20’s – I’d probably do things a little differently in college and not have the same long-distance boyfriend for my years there. Maybe live a little more. Though my current age is pretty darn great, too!
Julie says
AGE ME!!! – I’m a pretty happy lady just the age I am! I’ve loved every stage of life so far and have no regrets! Just lots of nostalgia. Rather than wishing for the future or pining for the past, I think I’ll just enjoy where I am now! (Easy to say because I’m still in my 20’s?)

Adrienne says
AGE ME! I’d love to be 17 again.
Melissa says
AGE ME!!
I would either go back to my teens or back to when I was engaged and prevent myself from buying all the matchy matchy furniture haha!
Mary Baker says
AGE ME, to whatever age I will have our first child! I want to be a momma :)
Sandy says
AGE ME! I’m gonna go with 44… That’s 20 years from now, and I imagine I’ll have my stuff together by then with kids and that whole mess going on. :)
Raechel S says
AGE ME…I’m loving my age now, I am 27 and have a beautiful growing family, but I can’t wait to be in my 60s, looking back with my wonderful husband at the life we’ve made and sharing it with our children and grandchildren!
Happy Birthday and thanks for the giveaway! Xo
Amy says
AGE ME! I’d jump forward 2 and a half years to 27! We are currently buying a house and planning a wedding- I’d love to sample what being a little more settled in (and less broke) feels like!
Melissa says
AGE ME! I like 32 very much. If I could go back, I’d probably make different choices, but then where would I be?? Certainly not in the fabulous place I currently am. :-)
Heather says
AGE ME! I would love to be 20 something again!
Brooke says
AGE ME! I’m perfectly happy being 26. Entering into my second year of marriage, and being a proud mama of my 7 month old baby girl. Just doesn’t get any better!
Natalie says
AGE ME! AGE ME! AGE ME! But ‘Age me’ back to when I was 23…perfect age – old enough to enjoy a good ‘ol fashioned diet coke at a fine establishment but just out of college and ready to take on the world!!
Valerie says
AGE ME to 25, it was such a great year!
Megan says
AGE ME!!
I’m actually really happy with my current age. Sure, there are days when I wish my life was as simple as a child’s, but I appreciate the freedom I have now and the maturity that has come with my age.
Lisa says
AGE ME!
I would like to hang out at my current age of 27 right now. We are having a great time… and time is just going too fast to enjoy it all!
Whitney says
AGE ME… i love being a young 20-something, but i could totally stand a few days being 16 again. driving back roads a little over the speed limit, loud music, windows rolled down. oh wait, i still do that…
Megan says
AGE ME
Oh, this is tough but I’m going to say 18 because I’d like to go back to my college years again with a little more perspective.
Happy 30th Sherry!!
rachel says
AGE ME! I would love to be 11 again, where my only worry in the world was my coloring markers drying up!
BTW – happy birthday sherry!
Lauren says
AGE ME!!! 90… I want to be able to look back… think of what we will have seen by that point! Plus when your 90 you can say whatever the heck you want… I’ll totally be that Granny (can you believe she just said that!!! She doesn’t care, she’s old!)
Mindy in Indy says
AGE ME
I wanna be 8 and play freeze tag with my neighborhood friend in my back yard. No real responsibilites.
Robin says
AGE ME please! I would loooove to be 17 again and relive my senior year of high school, that was such a fun and carefree year.
Jane says
AGE ME – This week is my birthday too! I will turn 28 on March 22nd :)
I wish I could be 16 again, but only for one day! Just to remember what it was like to be so full of angst :)
Andrea says
AGE ME!
I’d like to revisit the age of 7 – just for a little while…
Happy Birthday $herDog!
Michele says
Age me!
