That Failure Was Epic (or why does everything smell of vinegar)

Once the weekend hit and I got back into the construction of the wabi sabi dollhouse, trouble hit. As I began to assemble parts to continue building porch posts, I realized I didn't have enough parts...BECAUSE I INCORRECTLY ASSEMBLED the first one. Flashback to those darn "instruction's instructions"--label parts before assembling. Okay, okay, I had read that earlier, but ignored. (In my head I can hear my dad saying "measure twice cut once".) After ungluing the incorrect piece, I have since labeled all the porch pieces and so I begin again.(AFTER the now wet and stinky pieces dry out a bit today on the porch).
