Of fruit, cricket and coffee



There's so much going on back home!
The Konkan Fruit Fest is just over. If you missed it this year, make sure you catch it next year. Whether you are a farmer, an amateur gardener, or a foodie (by food I mean fruit), there is always a lot to learn, see, and buy at the KFF.
EVERYBODY (and their dog) is watching the IPL matches. Fun fact that a friend relayed as part of her commentary on our WhatsApp group: the Royal Challengers Bangalore have green initiatives, and wear green once a year. And they're about to be declared carbon neutral.

Over here...
I went to a Starbucks for the first time ever. Yes, big MNC. With complicated orders and coffee cup holders. But look!

A picture's worth a thousand words; however, just in case you can't read the words in the picture: 'Made from 100% recycled fibres using a bleach-free process.'
How cool is that! And the cup holder is made with 60% post-consumer fiber (which I first read about in an Archie comic).
So, while I am not about to spend my as-yet-unmade  millions at Starbucks, it's nice to know that the green lady on their stuff is really, truly GREEN (a little anyway)


New blog :D
