Mandy, I like to cook and bake, but don't get into gadgets. I do most everything by hand. I noticed my mother has many new gadgets (small appliances), which basically collect dust.
For me, basics are all that is needed like:
- a strainer (collander)
- potato masher (you'll need it for more than potatoes)
- two spatulas (non-stick and large flat metal one)
- large skillet
- small skillet
- soup pot (cast iron)
- smaller pans (for sauces, gravies and such)
- service for 8 utensils
- service for 8 dishes
- glasses in various sizes (they usually come in box this way)
- knives (steak, peeling, and large Chef's knife)
- mixer
- coffee maker
- oven mitts
- salt/pepper shaker
- butter dish
- microwave
- dish rack
- rubber spatula
- assorted wooden spoons
- assorted wraps (plastic, wax, aluminum)
Well, that's off the top of my head. Good luck!
