She just points at my wooden gunning duck decoy collection and grins. Kinda like "Go ahead. Make my day."
I'm sure if it came down to freezing to death or having antique furniture and/or the wooden gunning duck decoy collection....the ducks and the furniture would be a burning!! Back not even a century ago it was not uncommon for people to be forced to burn the furniture and moulding in their homes to keep a family warm.....
