Am I the only one that can’t believe Thanksgiving is less than one week away? Where has the time gone?! I just honestly can’t believe that we’re past the middle of November! There is already so much holiday stuff up, but after Thanksgiving it just all gets out of hand. I really enjoyed the holidays when I owned a house, but it’s a bit depressing now that I’m in a small apartment. All we really put up is a Charlie Brown Tree.
But in the spirit of the upcoming holiday, I wanted to share my Thanksgiving Must Haves (in no particular order) from everyone’s favorite store, Williams-Sonoma!

Spiced Pecan Pumpkin Spice Quick Bread Mix
I absolutely love Spiced Pecan Pumpkin Spice Quick Bread. It’s so easy to make and it makes a delicious breakfast for early on Thanksgiving morning after you throw the turkey in the stove.
Made with fresh pecans and an aromatic blend of spices, this mix makes an autumn classic easy to prepare. The quick bread emerges golden brown from the oven, ready to slice and serve warm with butter or jam.

Fall Piecrust Cutters
There’s a new item available for Bakers, and they are super cute! The Fall Piecrust Cutters come in a set of four including a Leaf, Pumpkin, Turkey and Acorn.
These cutters are an easy way to create piecrusts with decorative appeal – without overhandling your dough. Just press firmly to cut the edges, and then depress the spring to release delicate shapes embossed with fine detail.
Layer the shapes on top of a pie, or use the cutters to make cutout patterns in a pie’s top crust. This is the perfect decoration for your Apple & Pumpkin Pie!

iSi Gourmet Whip
Thanksgiving Dessert always involves Pie at my house! So the iSi Gourmet Whip is the perfect addition to your arsenal! Don’t buy any of that Cool Whip, Reddi Whip, or Whipped Topping. Make your own!
Dispense whip cream, soft cheeses and buttercream frostings in seconds with this powerful tool. Three different dispenser nozzles let you add a decorative flourish for garnishes, cake toppings and festive borders.
Crafted of dishwasher-safe brushed stainless steel. I love when things are dishwasher-safe! I don’t want to stand around and do dishes all night!
I love that you can dispense buttercream frosting out of this! I’ll definitely get my moneys worth!

Microplane Herb Mill
I love to make an Herb Butter to put all over the Turkey before it goes into the oven. So instead of having to stand there and chop up all of the herbs, this handy Microplane Herb Mill will save me time. And I can use it throughout the year!
Place mint, oregano, sage and other fresh green leafy herbs in this mill, then just twist the handle – the ultra-sharp scissoring blades quickly mince even large quantities of herbs for flavorful salad dressings, sauces and more.
And…it’s dishwasher-safe!

Acorn Twine Holder
I don’t know about you, but whenever I need Twine to tie up a Turkey or a Chicken, I can’t seem to remember where I put it. This super cute Acorn Twine Holder would solve my problem.
Borrowing the autumnal shape of an acorn, our Italian-made polished alder-wood holder keeps twine handy for kitchen and household tasks. It comes with a ball of sturdy linen twine that won’t turn brown or char in a hot oven.
