If you get the chance to see M*A*S*H (film) do watch it. It has a stellar
cast and was written by Ring Lardner based on Hooker's novel. It will give
some insight into the TV characters, etc. And it's (I think) two hour break
that may make your jaws ache from grinning so much.

I've done almond butter and cashew butter but keep coming back to good

How are you on the nuts themselves?

My favourite turkey deli meat is the turkey pastrami. If I'm going to 
have a turkey sandwich I prever sliced turkey from the roasted carcass.
It's bot a texture ands a taste thing with me.
