Only once. I specifically made a trip to the store to buy milk for something I was baking. Of course I found out at the worst possible moment that the inside seal was broken and even though it was well before the expiration date, it was spoiled.

Fortunately a watered down version of half-and-half saved the day.

While my personal style falls more on the minimalistic side, I can appreciate Sai's glam and how well put together her home is after just a month of living there. Impressed!

On a side note: I'm really shocked by the judgment calls people seem to be making in response to someone opening up their home for a house tour. Let us not forget, this is an interior design blog. So I'm not sure why "spiritual value" and other comments come into play. Especially when none of the of the other tours I see display spiritual value, nor would I expect them to. I can't speak to what's in her closet, but based her resources cited, her furniture seems to come from price-conscious places -- just well put together.

On Sai's website bio, she is originally from Sierra Leone, so I'm sure she's well-versed on the plights of the world. Instead of judging her for showing her home (appropriately enough on an design blog), how about we comment on her style choices (regardless if we like it or not).

Great tour! Thanks for sharing.

And is that cat also a bank? She looks very familiar, I think I had one as a kid!

Yay! I think the monitor makes a huge difference. Scored an 27 on my MacBook Air at home, but a 7 on my Dell monitor at work. Hmm... interesting.

27... and now my eyes hurt. I'm surprised it wasn't lower. I always thought I had a good eye for colors.
