Dear Tolkien Booksharians,

Sam would be touched that his beloved pans garnered so much attention.  This 
one's for you, Sam.

"'And he (Stinker) isn't going to mess with my pans!' With that he carried all 
the gear away to one of the many gaping fissures that scored the land and threw 
them in. The clatter of his precious pans as they fell down in to the dark was 
like a death-knell to his heart."

BTW
Peter Jackson expressed remorse that he didn't make more of this emotional 
moment in his ROTK film 

Always with love,

Lissi

pan."

  I still must rely on memory as the books are not readily available (I can 
check later if anyone wants me to) but I do believe that nowhere else in the 
trilogy are the pans specified except as "cooking gear"  which, as has been 
said, was left in the depression (aptly named I think) as it was not said to be 
a hole or bottomless but it was never detail until the " stewed coneys" and, I 
think, an earlier reference to the lack of salt which Sam forgot.

      You are forgiven, but it is a grave offense to get something like that 
wrong; so please watch it. <grin>

      Besides, maybe you are the one who should forgive me.  After having 
looked up the matter for someone else, and having said so, I may have been a 
bit terse.

        Evan,

        Meant to indicate that the memory was foggy.  On further thought, 
believe sam did say something about Golum getting into hot watter if he damaged 
one of "my pans."  

        Forgive.

          He used pans to stew the rabits, as I have already shown.

            Sam used a small pot to stew his rabbits, but when he dumped his 
gear in Mordor, there were a couple of pans.  One of them may have been a 
frying pan, but right now, can't remember.
