Strand Sass Error "Errno::EACCES: Permission denied"

I am setting up a new project locally on my mac (El Capitan) and I am getting a weird error when setting up sass to watch my files. See below:

sass --watch Desktop/test/scss:Desktop/test/css

Produces:

>>> Sass is watching for changes. Press Ctrl-C to stop.
Errno::EACCES: Permission denied - /Users/{my_user_name}/.Trash/.BAH.1kCiq/FH-GoodDogPlain WTT/GOODDOGP.TXT
  Use --trace for backtrace.

Anyone know why this may be happening, I am stumped!

From what I see it might be an issue with your cache, take a look at the thread below, this might help:

Thanks Jacob. I deleted my entire Trash and that seemed to work!
