Running late again.
My day was divided into three halves, and time just went out the window.
I first saw CTWW challenge at 6am, but to no avail. Now I am trying to catch up on a days blogging.
My name is Cloro, not Inigo Montoya, just prepare to be loved
Firstly, I would like you to welcome my new playmate. His name is Cloro, he’s about five weeks old. Neighbours who knew of Lixo’s demise brought him round on Saturday, so I am no longer catless, I have an outlet for my caternal instincts.
Secondly, I would like to admit to an error. Last week I posted a picture of my ‘cayenne’ pepper bush. After discovering that the peppers weren’t growing to size, I realised that it is a chili pepper bush. So I have both growing now.
My tomatoes are doing great, harvesting two each day, wonderful because that matches my usage.

This weeks CTWW is preparing for Zero Waste Week.
This week conduct a daily food waste audit. Pay attention to what is being tossed out, how much is thrown away, where it’s ending up (compost, city compost, trash bin, etc.) and why it’s being tossed out. You might find this Food Waste Diary helpful. If you’re feeling truly ambitious, sort out the food waste and weigh it. This challenge is all about realizing just how much food we waste.
So there’s not actually much to write about at the moment, other than to say that I will be participating and report back next week.
New recycling collection
There is some local good news. Comlurb (city rubbish collection) has begun a selective rubbish campaign. Apart from our normal rubbish truck which passes in the evening, we now have coleta seletiva (selective collection) truck passing each Tuesday morning for recyclable rubbish. So far I have left glass and plastic bottles out.
So until next week.
