PRICKLY PEARS

THE PRICKLY PEAR CACTUS IS THE LAST TO BLOOM IN THE SPRING. THESE YELLOW FLOWERS TURN INTO A RED KNOB LIKE THING THAT PEOPLE USE TO TO MAKE PRICKLY PEAR JELLY.




ALSO IT IS POSSIBLE TO EAT THESE GREEN CATI. I TRIED IT ONCE, AND CLEANING THE THORNS OFF BEFORE PUTTING IT ON THE GRILL WAS WORSE THAN CLEANING A BULLHEAD FISH.



OPPS!!! LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A SECOND BATCH OF BABY ROAD RUNNERS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
