Yucky

Did you see that? The pesky snail clinging on to my Rosemary plant.

I immediately sprung into action and removed the snail. If I let it stay in the garden, it will devour my plants.

The next morning I spotted another one. Or did the same one hitchhike back from Siberia?

Nyah..nyah..nyah...I climbed back from next door!

Look at it.

Then while checking on my compost, I discovered more creepy crawlies.

Let's see what Phong Hong dumps into the compost. Bah! No cake!

See those black things? Those are some kind of slugs and they flourish during the wet season. So when it rains, I see lots of these creatures. 

I used to see brown ones but lately I see these black ones. They love to eat my plants especially young shoots.

There's even a baby one on a fallen branch.

A few days later I found a brown one. Languidly slithering on my car porch.

Phong Hong's driveway damn smooth.

And then a black one trying to make out with my garden hose.

Humpa...humpa...humpa,...

And then a threesome on the grass.

Hurry up Charlotte! George is coming!

My late grandma was an avid gardener and she used to exterminate these slugs and snails with salt. Pour salt on them and they writhe in agony and you literally see them dissolve into slime. Apologies for the explicit description.

And then one weekend I woke up to this.

Nyah...nyah...nyah....there goes your pandan chiffon cake.

Haiz...............
