This strip is just for fun only, I never condone alcohol drinking. Occasionally and annually I will have a beer or a glass of red wine at some social gatherings, and that’s all. One particular ex-coworker of mine drinks a lot, every time I look at him, all I can see is his beer-infused fat arms and pot-belly, and “liver failure” in his face. I am over-weight and I know I am not in good shape, but his drinking habit is really destroying him and accelerating his body failure.
I have received some comments from my female coworkers and readers that they really like the Carlos character. I guess they like the cute characters in the strip but they like the “really” cute character more.
You might wonder what veggie Beatrice is supposed to be. She is an iceberg lettuce. After doing some research, now I know cabbage and lettuce are really two different things 
If I can dedicate all the time to this comic, I would draw a few more strips to introduce Bobby B properly. But, I think the sudden introduction and goodbye of Bobby works quite well to inject some urgency to the issue I want to talk about.
In case you are not aware, bees all over the world are dying rapidly. Scientists have yet to pinpoint the exact reason why this is happening, but the phenomenon is already devastating to bee farmers and crops producers. Bee help pollinate about a third of all the food crops in human diets, and if bees go extinct, we are in big trouble.
How do we help? We actually don’t know yet. Hagen Daas the ice-cream maker recently launched a website to address the problem (they use a lot of honey and almond in their ice-cream products), but so far one of the solutions that they suggest are buy more honey to help out the honey farmers. But I don’t think that solve anything to get the bees back.
There are some citizens breeding bees in their own backyard and city building rooftops and I truly admire their effort. I would like to help, but ironically I am afraid of insects. I am trying to conquer this phobia, knowing that I am a thousand times bigger than them.
Chloroville, on the surface it’s just a comic strip featuring vegetable characters doing some gags, but what I also want to accomplish is to introduce some funny or interesting things related to botany and nature. On the process of creating the strip, I learn a little more about plants and fruits.
