Thanksgiving is like a middle school book report: It’s not difficult, so long as you get ahead. Less demanding than a five-paragraph essay on the symbolism of A Wrinkle In Time, much of your Thanksgiving shopping can be knocked out weeks in advance with a quick visit to the grocery store.
In conjunction with our Thanksgiving timeline, we’ve highlighted everything that you could buy between now and the start of November to best prepare your kitchen. This list includes ingredients, equipment, and beverages that will not expire nor lose utility if they sit around for weeks. Before you dive in, we encourage you to heed our general Thanksgiving shopping advice: take inventory of your pantry, consider your menu, then hit the store.
