A Graduate Student Thanksgiving: What to cook?

This will be Trent and my first Thanksgiving away from home. And while we have plenty of friends to celebrate with, we need to narrow down what to cook! We have two confirmed friends joining us with the possibility of around four more. Sadly, we've already had to turn down three very generous invitations for other dinners from Trent's boss, a friend from back home and mom's college roommate in lieu of hosting our own fabulous feast. Now what to cook:
          • The Staples
            • Turkey
            • Pearl Onions
            • Mashed potatoes
            • Sweet potato pie
            • Stuffing
            • Gravy
What do you suggest to add, and do you have a favorite recipe to share?

The maple glazed Turkey over at Martha Stewart.com looks great... and there's a bunch of other recipes there as well.
