Nearing the end of the year means we're also getting close to the gifting season. So that means brands are coming up with some excellent giftable options — like Brooklinen's flannel sheets and Carnegie Deli's NYC Holiday Feast — to help you find gifts for everyone on your list. Plus, there were a few interesting releases like Patagonia (the outdoor apparel brand) releasing a collection of natty wine and Fly By Jing (our favorite chili crisps brand) getting into frozen dumpling territory. Here are the best home and food & drink releases of November.

Neato D9 Intelligent Robot Vacuum

Neato

Presented by Neato

Take some of the work out of the holidays with the Neato D9 Intelligent Robot Vacuum. The Neato D9 delivers a deeper clean with 40 percent greater dirt pick-up than previous models and has an ultra-performance filter that captures up to 99.5 percent of dust and allergens. The robot vacuum cleans up to 1,600 sq. feet on a single charge making it ideal for medium to larger-sized homes. Neato LaserSmart SLAM technology with LIDAR completely maps, navigates and cleans your home allowing the vacuum to navigate and clean even in the dark — before you ask, there are no cameras or microphones on board to spy on you or your family. And with 200 minutes of runtime, you can go about your day while your home gets its deepest clean yet. With zone and no-go zone cleaning, you can define areas to clean more frequently — or select no-go zones to identify areas to avoid (like a child's play area or pet food bowls). Spend more time doing what you love this season and less time cleaning by securing yours below.

Morgenstern's Finest Ice Cream

Rick and Morty of Rick and Morty fame have outgrown their Pickle Rick phase, and they're now an ice cream flavor — or four ice cream flavors to be exact. In collaboration with Morgenstern’s Finest Ice Cream, the Adult Swim television show is releasing four new ice cream flavors to coincide with the show. The flavors are: Ricky Road, chocolate ice cream with a peanut butter swirl, marshmallow cream, peanuts and chocolate chunks; Moonman Morty, banana and grape ice cream with candy diamonds; Glorzo Empress Summer, honey ice cream with grape jellies; and Mr. Poopy Butthole, raw milk ice cream with pizza cookies.

Chances are, like many other people, have been cooking at home a lot for the past couple years. Chefs David Chang, of Momofuku fame, and Priya Krishna, a New York Times food reporter, certainly have. The two teamed up on a new cookbook, Cooking at Home, that's not like your typical cookbook — there aren't exactly "recipes." Instead, Cooking at Home is an explainer for teaching cooks how to master basics in the kitchen whether it's a form of roast meat or a fried rice. And because this is David Chang, a noted microwave lover, there are tips for getting the most out of the most hated kitchen appliance in the pro-chef world.

Gantri's latest collection of lamps, called Kobble, is designed by the industrial designer Karim Rashid, who's done work for the likes of Pepsi and Veuve Clicquot. The lights — which include floor, wall and table varieties — are in Rashid's signature "blobject" style, which Gantri describes as a style that's "distinguished by smooth flowing curves, bright colors, and an absence of sharp edges." Like Gantri's other lamps, they feature a dimmer, are 3D printed from plant materials and have a museum-grade LED bulb.

Yóu Yóu

Your choice of cooking oil matters. And one you should be trying is from a new brand called Yóu Yóu. The brand's tea seed oil, which is derived from the camellia oil tree, has a higher smoke point than vegetable oil, and it's also filled with more Omega-3s and antioxidants. The cooking oil will help you achieve those super-crusty sears on steak you've been trying to get, and it has just a slight nutty flavor that complements anything you cook with it. Want to mix a better salad dressing? Use Yóu Yóu. Whipping up a stir fry? This is the oil for you.

The frozen dumplings — available in pork, shrimp and scallop; pork, shrimp and mushroom; and pork soup dumplings — are ready to go from freezer to mouth in just a few minutes. The ingredients are filled with the things you'd use if you were to make these dumplings at home and nothing you wouldn't be able to easily find at the grocery store.

Jono Pandolfi

Jono Pandolfi makes some of our favorite bowls and dishes, and it's also a favorite among Michelin-starred chefs — like Missy Robbins. Robbins, who owns the Italian restaurants Lilia and Misi in New York, worked with Jono on a new bowl, the Union, which is its deepest bowl to date. The Union bowl is handmade, like everything else Jono Pandolfi produces, and available in Toasted or Dark Brown clay body with white interior glaze. The bowls quickly sold out as soon as they were released, but they're expected to restock before the holidays. Until then, head over to Misi's website where the Union bowl is available in a Slate clay body with white interior glaze.

Patagonia Provisions

Patagonia has the meats! Its Patagonia Provisions line of food and drink released a new venison link made from the invasive Hawaiian axis deer. The deer pose a threat to native foliage, and they're humanely harvested to control the population, while creating a wildly delicious sausage. (Not to mention each pack of two sausages packs 16 grams of protein.) Enjoy them on their own or throw them on the grill for a protein-packed, delicious snack or meal.

Hendrick's Gaming Chaise

Hendrick's Gin

Hendrick's (yes, the gin brand) made a gaming chair, and it's not an April Fool's joke (this is November, right?). Except it's less of a chair and more of a chaise, and it's as ridiculous as it sounds. The backrest has a horn and retractable arms, which actually hold things, and built-in storage can hide booze, gaming accessories and more. Hendrick's actually designed the thing to be anti-gaming — as in PC or console gaming — and is meant for those with cash to blow and poker games to play.

A lot of things about the holidays suck. From shopping for gifts to dealing with more family time than you'd like, there's a lot to complain about.

Sustainable online marketplace Goldune released a gift wrapping kit for those who don't want to kill the earth while they celebrate the holidays. The kit includes five sheets of double-sided wrapping paper, a spool of cotton ribbon and three gift tags. The best part? It's all compostable so you can gift with peace of mind.
