[Sca-cooks] was idiots, return of loaned items

[Betsy Marshall]

When we were packing to head off to war and a group kitchen, I wrote
Caelin's name on the outside of each and every pot, pan, and spoon with
a "sharpie" marker. Two years later the names are still visible. (But
not the knives, wasn't sure if the ink would a)last or b)mix with the
food. Didn't take the best knives at all) Pyro, HTH

I recently taught at a local event, wherein 4 sets of
my hand tools went AWOL.
 I had mentioned to all in the class that the tools
were not for keeping, and had written this both on
their handouts and on a list of what goods they each
should have in their class kits.

 Now, I was frustrated when I got home and realised
that several hand tools were absent, but this problem
was quickly remediated.

 I had, however, marked every pair with an engraver.
Upon arrival home, I made a post about the fact that I
would like these tools back, how they were marked, and
was not upset that they were gone.
 
 The next day, all tools were on my front porch. 

 My intention is to engrave everything I can, and
otherwise mark everything else.

 Perhaps pots and pans could be marked in some way?

 Theoretically I am all for loaning things, why spend
money where it has already been spent, but
practically, I am rarely willing to do so.
