I have a tight fitting, transparent gel case for my Galaxy. You can barely tell it's there.
Within weeks, a few cat hairs (I do have a cat of course) will get under the case and get all the way to the middle, as far in as they can go. I turn the phone around and currently see four of them trapped underneath.
I cannot comprehend the physics of how this can happen.
=(
It's like spaghetti sauce, it gets everywhere. I think cats are phenomenal creatures to have as pets; however, I hate that they shed.
shareIt's interesting how shedded fur sticks to some clothes like a magnet, but some fabrics are completely immune. The interactions with the surface of a fabric is referred to as its haptics. The way it feels against your skin, the way it interacts with other things. Some fabric surfaces are like miniature velcro.

shareI always have a lint roller handy, or a few. They're cheap, just give them away to guests like door prizes =)

shareWow! That is just sad.... to be afraid of messing up a room in your house! I mean, what in the world are people even thinking? Do they occasionally stand outside the door to admire it? I'll bet they don't get much company. You can't feel very comfortable in that sort of environment. Home should be a haven.... not a museum.

shareRaking your carpet is beyond sad. It borders on mental illness.

shareThat makes it even weirder... Maybe it was a deceased family member's favorite room? Or maybe someone died in that room and they don't want to disturb the spirit?
Raking a carpet is definitely going overboard. I've been asked to take shoes off in people's houses before, and I don't really have a problem with it unless they really nag about every speck of dirt. It's more comfy without shoes on. My family doesn't force people to take off their shoes, but guests are welcome to if they want.

The best hostess or host I've ever encountered was just like you. I loved going to her house when I was a kid and young adult, because I felt so at home and at ease.
She was a great cook. Anything intended to be served either hot or warm was put out when most people were eating, and then either covered or put in a warm oven, where you could serve yourself at will.
I much preferred this style to the style of entertaining to where the host or hostess feels they need to ask "Would you like more ___? Can I get you another ____?"
I'll trade a bit of fur on me for some kisses and a new best friend any day!

Do you put your corn cobs on the grill, dewey?
share👻
shareThat's exactly how I do it, except for the added spices that you use and yes, they're actually steam cooked, hot and delicious.
Here's something you might want to try on the grill : Take an entire onion ( I usually use a yellow ), cut it into quarters but only halfway down; insert a beef bullion cube in the resulting cavity, top it with a thick chunk of butter, wrap it in foil and let it slow cook on the edge of your grill for 30-45 min.
A guest I introduced this to one summer described it as " divine ! "

I don't see why not. With your apparent expertise in the kitchen, I'm sure you could work that out.

I wasn't implying that at all.Your experience comes through loud and clear in your rhetoric.
I've worked in a lot of restaurants myself, the first one when I was 16.
I love it too ! I watch a lot of the food-oriented programs.
Maybe you should start a food thread. I think it would get a lot of feedback.

It works in the oven too, but it's better on the grill. I used to do this a lot with just a yellow onion, no butter or bullion or anything. Simply peel it apart and eat it as it is, because the onion ends up tasting SO good by itself.

I have a friend who never lets anyone wear shoes anywhere in the house. They don't have white carpets or anything just really nice hardwood floors that she doesn't want scratched. It makes me crazy! When you're a woman you usually have heels on that are a part of your outfit and you have to walk around her parties in a cocktail dress and booties(which she provides at the door). I appreciate the comfort of no shoes but, the whole high maintenance house thing makes me bananas. I'd be terrified if I spilled something.

You're right, no kids but two dogs. I'm sure they're super trained. She's a perfectionist, she has endless energy. Honestly, I don't think she's very happy. She's a wonderful person but she never lets her hair down. I know I can't live like that. That kind of pretense is exhausting. I agree, to each his own!
shareYour cat sat on your phone?
shareEasy. Your cat is gaslighting you.
shareThe same way dust can get into places I guess.

Okay I'm going to go way out on a limb here and say it was from your cat.

"That bad, huh?"
