There's no way around it, November means Thanksgiving. Whether you're prepping your own meal, or headed over to someone else's house, you will definitely find something on our list of must haves [1].

• To start things off, we've got the Willie Bird Fresh Organic Turkey [2] ($65-$85). It's raised on natural grains and vegetables in Sonoma County, California. In addition to being organic and free-range, it has a clean turkey flavor.
• Once you get a fabulous turkey, you're going to need a large roaster to cook it in. This Calphalon Contemporary Stainless Roaster with V-Rack [3] ($99.95) is sleek and contains an aluminum core for superb heat conductivity. It's large enough for a 25lb turkey and the rack is non-stick.
• If you're looking to take the leap from mashed potatoes to thinly-sliced gratin, then you're going to need a slicer or mandoline. This Zyliss 4-In-1 Multi Slicer/Grater [4] ($19.95) will make slicing and grating a breeze!
• Need a great way to get the conversation started? These TableTopics Conversation Starters [5] will help you break the ice. Each set of conversation starting questions will help maneuver through those awkward party moments. They're perfect for the host, and great for a guest to bring as well.
• Finally, an important Thanksgiving must have is this Multi-Time Triple Timer [6] ($14.99). With three display monitors, you can easily set and keep track of three items at once.
