Your list seems pretty comprehensive for food and tools. I have had a skim through and I don't see cleaning products, mainly detergent for dishes or dishwasher, bathroom cleaner, etc.
You can get by without a proper oven mitt if you have teatowels, without a colander if you can juggle the pot and lid cleverly, and without a potato masher if you have a fork or wooden spoon. (do you have wooden spoons? Do you have a budget for this Expotition?
Ditto what someone said about not going mad with fresh food initially. Build up a stock of frozen, canned and dry goods, spices etc. But Farmer's Market ftw!

and finally: good luck and enjoy your new place.
