    On the first day of the challenge, I have collected kitchen waste and dropped them in compost bin. While de-cluttering one of the cupboard, identified 3 plastic container, punched few holes in sides, filled with soil, and sown spinach seeds. Will tend them daily. Due to long cycling (around 100 km) , heavy thirst and unavailability of public water source(yet used my refillable water bottle whenever possible), bought an aerated drink along with 2 litres of packaged mineral water bottle which I am planning to reuse them instead of throwing them away.
