    I have two cards and neither of them have a fee. Wells Fargo Autograph gives 3% on restaurants, travel, gas stations, transit, popular streaming services, and phone plans, then 1% on everything...

    I have two cards and neither of them have a fee.
    Wells Fargo Autograph gives 3% on restaurants, travel, gas stations, transit, popular streaming services, and phone plans, then 1% on everything else, so for everything else I use my Wells Fargo Active Cash Card which gives 2% back on everything.

    I’ve been getting into smoking meats lately. I purchased a charcoal smoker. I’ve done some pork butt and steaks, I’m looking forward to tackling a brisket soon.

    I did the same a while ago, I couldn’t bring myself to get knee deep into sourdough so I kept trying out different yeast packet recipes. I came across this King Arthur recipe and it was perfect. Very good bread and very easy to make. I haven’t bought bread in a long time. There’s nothing wrong with dividing the recipe in half, and using half a packet of yeast.

    I like the idea of keeping the site invite only. And I believe we should hold each user responsible for the invites they share. It would reduce trolling, and prevent the site from becoming overrun...

    I play the drums, not professionally, just for fun. I’ve got a pretty nice kit I’m proud of. My skill level is middle of the road.

    One of my hobbies is cars. I have a 1969 Chevy C10 pickup truck I’m restoring and customizing with special made air ride suspension. I think it’s going to be several years before I’m close to done with it. I also have a Pontiac G8 GT I’ve been putting some energy and money into. I’ve fixed the A/C and upgraded the suspension and wheels. Next up is a brake upgrade.

    It’s a reference to my favorite tv show right now, and I happen to drive a Pontiac.

    Pretty good, I’ve been working around the house on some projects. Later I’ll be going to dinner with some friends because one of them is going to Germany for three months.
