Ginny, sorry to bring up a sad subject, but I was thinking last night, about when we were cleaing out my grandmothers home. We couldn't find any of her good jewlery, her costume jewlwery was all in the case but not the real stuff....
After exploring I discovered that she had wrapped her "good stuff" in old kleenex and stuffed in in various places around the apartment, inside her sewing machine bobbin case, in the toe of a shoe, inside the sofa cushion, inside boxes of food in the pantry....to protect them from potential robbers
