Siggy's Blurbs: Siggy's Edge of Country …

This was a meal fit for a king:  large delicious, sweet local blueberries with a cut up banana with milk and cereal.  It was a perfect breakfast.  I had sampled the blueberries before buying them. And only then did I buy them.  My wife ate two bowls of them with some sugar sprinkled on them.  I thought that was overkill.  I was glad I bought a quart of them at the local Amish store.  They are disappearing quickly.

We have a “monster” and an unusual cactus.  It has half a dozen tentacles on it four feet long and three and four inches wide.  We bought it at the local Amish store.  We had to transport it very carefully for we did not want to break off any of its tentacles.  I have never seen one like this one.  We found a good spot for it outside.  It was flowering when we bought it.  It had gigantic pink flowers and it must like where it is for the last two buds are still developing, which is a good sign.
