Ducks and dogs
We retired our first duck
today along with some chickens.
Lucy likes to patiently wait
till Anna throws her the heart and liver. Lucy also enjoys licking up
the blood that collects in a cake pan, but she turned her nose up at
the duck blood and organs.

I look forward to your first duck dinner. I've always heard it was hard to cook duck in a tasty manner. Lots of fat, etc. I'm sure you're up to the job!!!
In my opinion duck organs are far tastier than chicken.
I'd recommend marinating the hearts in a little balsamic, garlic, and salt, then grilling them or searing them on a cast iron pan.
The livers can be sauteed with onion and butter!
