The only thing I see is you only get that 5% travel on purchases in the Chase portal. Those aren't always the best deals. Chase Sapphire Reserve gives you 3% on all travel and lodging (any hotel, AirBnb, and airline).
I think I'm done with the Chase Sapphire Reserve after 2021. Basically a $150 fee after renewing my global entry and $300 travel credit next year.
Peas are horrible 🤢. Need to give the poblano peppers a try.

I have the Benihana fried rice recipe. Also refrigerate the rice a few hours or overnight to reduce moisture.
Garlic Butter For Rice (2 cups rice):
- 1 stick butter
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- half lemon juice
- soy sauce to your taste
- mix
I have to take the cooktop off and bring it in the house or it will rust due to the Houston humidity. It's heavy and a pain in the ass. I would put the Camp Chef in the garage, but I don't have direct access to my backyard from the garage.
I made some perfect Benihana fried rice Friday night.
Expect tough defense and 90 point games with Van Gundy. No fast breaks and fancy behind the back passes. Harden wouldn't last a season. Hard no to Van Gundy.
I have little doubt there was something going on last year during the playoffs. Alex Bregman sitting on a meatball slider right down the middle on something like a 2-0 count. He knew that slider was coming and was waiting for a fastball. There were multiple at bats people were wondering why he wasn't swinging at pitches down the middle. I don't think he was getting fooled by those pitches.
Kyle Tucker swinger at a fastball over his head. He knew that fastball was coming.The announcer sarcastically made a comment that Tucker swung like he knew that pitch was coming yesterday.
Maybe they weren't using the same system they used in 2017, but they had some kind of system going on. I know they were good at analyzing pitchers tipping pitches, so that was probably also a factor.
I just spent a long weekend in Leakey. Get something like this.

I have been using Nioxin shampoo and conditioner for years. I don't know why because a shave my head pretty close these days. I don't know if it does any good, but my hair is the same and it's soft.
I'm in the same situation. Think I'm going to cancel my sapphire reserve even though I need to renew my global entry next year. There are many other cards that will recoup that cost.
The Chase Freedom Unlimited is upgrading there rewards program.
5% travel
3% dining
still 1.5% on everything else.
The only downside is I think you have to use the Chase portal for travel. The portal doesn't always have the best deals and of course won't include Airbnb, hotels, and airlines not on their portal.
