Let's face it—Thanksgiving dinner can be pretty stressful. There's a giant bird, a million sides and a ton of relatives just itching to find something wrong. That's why we deeply appreciate anything that lightens the mood, and if it happens to have amazing recipes, so much the better.

This adorable book, entitled "Color Me Turkey," is from Chicago-based (and newly-formed) Bombe Pop. Authored by Joanna and Todd Miller (with illustrations by Patrick Burnell), it's the perfect combination of whimsical and useful. Alongside coloring pages (including a turkey, pie and casserole), there are some great-sounding recipes, including a beer brined nashville-hot turkey, "tickled and pickled" deviled eggs, and spicy collard greens. There's even a bourbon-based cocktail: the "cheeky pilgrim."

The whole book only costs $5, either on paper or for digital download, and is the perfect host gift, present-to-yourself (who doesn't need a coloring book?!) or display piece for your seasonal coffee table display. Buy it here.
