how many can you play adequately that people would want to hear it in public?

Surely you have a couple of spoons in your house? ;-)

My pots and pans are out of tune.
Maybe I should get a tuning fork?


Do I win an award for that bad pun? Come on, at least a cookie?

That's quite a collection. I won't ask you what all those instruments are. I'll just ask how many and which ones you play frequently.

First of all I play instruments that produce notes not items that are banged together to make sound.
Here are the instruments that people wouldn't mind hearing:
PIANO (My best instrument)
Violin
Mandolin
Ukulele
Guitar
Flute
Recorder
Clarinet (I could get by I"m not concert on this yet)
Harmonica is actually prgressing really fast. I am playing full songs and scales.

So: 9
