What's Cooking EDF? #4

[Xaston]

I'm moving into a nice big new apartment by myself at the beginning of December. I've been living with roommates so I've been using shared stuff and stuff that isn't mine. I am taking with me a cast iron pan, a big saute pan, a bunch of forks, and an ice cream maker.

I'm gonna go to a kitchen supply store in a few days. What do I need to buy, and how much should I be looking to spend?

I want to be as good as you guys at cooking and plating.
