Summary
What should you do when a sentimental hand-me-down just doesn't fit in with the rest of your home? And if you try and try but just can't find a way to love it, do you keep it out of guilt and give it everlasting side eye or let it go and cry because you feel heartless? We're weighing in on that tough call most of us have to make. Also, another one of Sherry's house schemes quickly unravels and I get real about those online "find your style" quizzes. Plus, we give an underrated kitchen accessory a moment in the spotlight, we find out what your home state smells like, and a famous "neighbor" drops us a line.
