Snail Hunting

I hope you weren’t enjoying something nice to eat…
😀
Last night I went outside to put the snow peas into the carport for early morning collection (Swapping for farm fresh made butter) and I saw so many snails!!
So I went on an impromptu snail and slug hunt.
Ew.

The chooks were a bit overwhelmed… they love snails, but were confused with the serving dish.
Every now and again, one would get brave, snatch a snail and run… then the others would chase her to steal it.
Eyeroll – but very entertaining.

I staked the hothouse tomatoes and sprayed them and the snow peas for aphids with some home made spray. Hopefully that will slow them up.

Ta-Daaa!
Passionfruit flowers!

So far Tentacular, the passionfruit vine, is keeping to his corner of the hothouse.

It rained on and off and was cool – nice timing of course because I did laundry. Mostly dried pretty well hung undercover on the veranda though.
We did a lap of the river and I booked myself into two markets for later in November.
Debating if I need to make more soap.
Probably… (Optimist haha)

Not much else spectacular to report from my part of the world!
Hope your week is starting well!
Cheers!
