Mid 30s, US. First car was a manual, but I have an automatic now. I do miss it, but I probably drive much safer now that it's less fun. Even though it was just a beat up old passat I always felt like I was in forza driving the manual
Instead of using the wax paper, get a large zip lock type bag. Cut it in half along the seams to make a sheet of plastic and then use that between the press and the tortilla. I usually rub the bag with a little bit of fat (lard, oil, etc) to keep them from sticking as much. It's more necessary for corn tortillas but I think it helps either way.

Where I live they legalized marijuana, but didn't issue licenses for legal dispensaries for almost two years. Nearly every corner store and head shop is a front . There's even a pizza shop near by with weed for sale openly.
Stay at home parent, former chef. The closest thing to tech background I have is electrician training in night school.
My wife calls it "chore-play" and it seems to really work for her. Even if its a trick, the house will be clean and everyone gets a little fun, what's the harm?
Here's my guitar, Martin D-16. What's everyone's favorite tunes to jam? Anything you're trying to work on these days?
I'm trying to fill out some content here but posting videos hasn't picked up much involvement or traffic. Let's get this group going with a bit of discussion.
Edit because I asked questions I didn't myself answer:
The first tune I think to play when I'm practicing is usually "Red Haired Boy" or "Salt Creek". I like to mix and match A and B parts from tunes in the same key. These are my favorite "G" warm up exercise.
I'm trying to learn how to play with more focus on melody and avoid just stringing together other people's licks.
Reaching back to my bluegrass awakening with this one. I grew up with the Grateful Dead and punk rock, Yonder was the first bluegrass adjacent group I had the pleasure to see. I still have a hard time with some of these old performances, but every once and a while I just get to missing this time in my life. RIP to the great Jeff Austin, I wish I could still see you make music.
Billy Strings plays "Know It All", "How Mountain Girls Can Love" Cover, and "Tipper" Cover live at The Capitol Theatre on February 4th, 2022.0:00 - Billy Str...
Some great pro shot video from the Cap run a few years back. These shows were a wild time.
Some of the finest playing, especially Sam's mandolin break. If Tony growls a quick "YEAH" after your break, you're doing something right
Starting off today with a wonderful version of "Way Downtown" played by Bryan Sutton & Michael Daves.
A nice cover from Billy and friends
Some fantastic playing from Del & The band. Ronnie McCoury is one of the best in the business.
What's everyone's favorite bluegrass tunes? This one has been the first thing I think to play as of late.
I was looking around for a bluegrass group on here and couldn't find one, I hope that someone else finds this and joins me.
