If I go into the Blogs that I follow and choose edit, I get a search box inwhich I can enter a wordpress URL. Voila !! I am now able to follow a specific blog as long as I know the URL.

The WordPress.com search engine indexes post, pages, and comments content (body text). Unless entered as text in those contents, blog name, post titles, and post/comment author names are not indexed. http://en.support.wordpress.com/wordpresscom-search/

For Google searches use this format and replace "keyword" with whatever word you wish:
keyword site:wordpress.com/

Example search string
Queen Victoria site:wordpress.com
