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!

Molly W. says
BIRTHDAY ME!
I honestly don’t know what I’ll want for my birthday, since it’s not for another 8 months. I’ll probably just want a nice meal and I’ll probably hint around that I want to go to this certain restaurant, which we’ll never end up eating at (I’ve been requesting to go there for 5 birthdays in a row now and it never happens!).
Bonnie says
Birthday me! My next bday is in January when I’ll be turning 30. Eek. It still seems so far away that as of now I’d just be happy with some champagne and diamonds. Not too demanding at all.

Quiet night with hubbie and our pooch, bruce

Want to take a nice hike with the fam and enjoy a homemade carrot cake from my mom.

BIRTHDAY ME! This year I will be turning the big 40 and at first I could not think of anything that would really make me happy.
Until I remembered a super fun night out I had in my 20’s with my sisters and cousins salsa dancing! If I could do anything for my 40th that would be it!

I just turned 30th a month ago and my hubby planned a great birthday for me! On my 31st birthday I want a juicer…I’ve been eating too much of my favorite ice cream so I think a juice fast will be in order soon :)
Kaylan Tuttle says
