You guys shut this puppy down with 10,000 entries in less than a day. Wow! So we’ve already selected our random winner. She is… Rhonda (who thinks she’s gonna ask for a juicer – to go along with her Christmas blender). Congrats!
Tomorrow is Sherry’s 31st birthday. So a few weeks ago I asked her if she wanted to do anything special giveaway-wise to celebrate. She looked dreamily towards the sky, a smile spread across her face, and she said “I want to do a Jonathan Adler giveaway and I want a picture of him holding ceramic animals and grinning like a fool. Because we are kindred spirits. That would pretty much make my year.”
A week later this photo appeared in my inbox:
The girl wanted a Jonathan Adler giveaway (you can read more about her love of the guy here) and the girl got it. The wonderfully cheerful people of Jonathan Adler were completely down with the idea (and the ceramic-animal-centric photo, apparently) so they’ve offered up a whopping $500 for one lucky winner to spend on whatever they’d like – animal or otherwise. Beyond obsessing over his white ceramic creatures, Sherry shares his love of poppy patterns, colorful accents, and chic accessories that don’t take themselves too seriously. So, um, happy birthday to one of you!

Birthday me! My 30th birthday (I have trouble saying that) is in November and my husband and friends have been instructed not to throw a birthday party, but have my permission to throw an anniversary party instead: the 5th anniversary of my 25th birthday.
For my birthday, I would love about an hour of free time and maybe a massage. I could also be persuaded to accept a combo birthday/anniversary band.
I work full time, just had a baby, we’re trying to sell our house, and am in school pursuing a doctorate…something fun would make my day!
Sam Cross says

Beth says
BIRTHDAY ME!
My birthday always gets lumped together with valentines day, in my husband’s eyes anyway. My mom is the only one who gets me bday presents anymore, it usually involves some kind of dish towel and random colorful kitchen tchotchkes from Wegmans (grocery store in upstate NY). I have 4 sets of measuring cups, spatulas ect…
Happy Birthday Sherry!

BIRTHDAY ME!
I’m pretty bad at thinking ahead and since my birthday is in October, that’s like, a lot of thinking ahead. :) I always love an excuse to go out for dinner and any kind of presents are nice. Maybe a massage? I’ll be working/interning over 50 hours a week at that point in time this year!
Lindsey says
Birthday me! And, happy birthday to Sherry! For my birthday I don’t really have a specific gift in mind, but I’ve been dying to visit Marfa, TX and sleep in a teepee!
Diane says

Jade says
BIRTHDAY ME! Surprise birthday parties and positive pregnancy tests rank up there in my list of top b’day gifts, but on my next birthday, I would really love some ‘me time’, a quiet day of relaxation, for catching up on my pile of unread magazines, having a quiet shower with no interruptions and absolutely NO cleaning up after anyone. Mama can dream.
