anyone who wore black was covered with cat hair.

What a great image !!

One present I gave my husband this year was a 'static' pet hair remover. We find ourselves when we have left the house with pet hairs (dog? cat?) on our clothes.

Cleaning has always been the best dividend on entertaining. My granddaughter's new boyfriend is visiting (not me, thank heavens, but downstairs) and there will be a thorough scrubbing. All good :)

I hope your party was everything you hoped it would be.

Merry Christmas to you, @owasco.
