Aww, that is terrible!! Did you have sleepless nights, because I know I would have. (Yes, I get attached to my personal belongings very easily, lol).
I would probably give out tomatoes and stuff, but not pots and pans - it would be too much to bear if someone ruined my special pot, I wouldn’t be able to forgive and forget. (Having said that, I don’t know how I would say ‘no’ if someone asked me for it ).
