    Go to any women's clothing store and you'll notice: Floral prints are having a moment right now. Shirts and skirts and dresses - and even men's clothing - are festooned with flowers, in prints that are a throwback to the '60s or '90s. In the words of "The Devil Wears Prada's" icy editor in chief Miranda Priestly: "Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking." But here's an area in which florals are actually novel. The trend is also sprouting up in food and, especially, beverages. It's a natural evolution of several previous trends, including our love for rainbow colors and all things pink. "Food, like fashion, is driven by trends, seasonality and the occasional gust of hype," said food writer Lee Tran Lam in Australian Vogue. Floral flavors were one of the biggest trend predictions for 2018, and one that has borne out right on time: just as those April showers bring May flowers. Like spring crocuses, floral foods are starting to pop up in mainstream consumer products. There are a lot of flowers in the hibiscus family, but they are found in tropical and subtropical climates. Hibiscus flowers have been used for tea throughout history in many parts of the world, and they play a role in the cuisine of several cultures, especially in central America. They have a tart, berry flavor. Try it in: Farmhouse Culture's strawberry hibiscus "gut punch" sparkling probiotic veggie drink, Potter's craft grapefruit hibiscus cider, Rishi hibiscus berry tea, Whole Foods's 365 tropical hibiscus fruit bars. It's a divisive flavor, because some people can think it tastes like soap. But it's gained popu When you buy edible flowers, make sure they were grown specifically for culinary use - you'll want to avoid flowers that were sprayed with pesticides or chemicals. Your local farmers market is a great place to start. We got ours from the District's Little Wild Things City Farm. A mix of violas, pansies and other assorted flowers, they have a mild arugula taste.

    Poemas adornados, perfumados e coniventes com o Tempo. São leves, agradáveis e reflexivos. Fragmentos e Silênciosos Há fragmentos do dia Na noite. Silêncio e barulhos de vida Dentro da casa. Os projetos tomam forma No dia seguinte. Pouco se há para fazer; Muito, se deixa pro futuro. Agora, o corpo acomoda, O dia quase acabou. Amanhã será outro... Fragmento de uma vida Assim se caminha só; Lembra da noite na praia? Imortalidade Imortalidade: sabor nostálgico; De algo que não se sabe Se é real ou não; Desejos ou sonhos em nuvens literárias Onde não criam-se frases; Mas sim, sentimentos enigmáticos; São tempestades em mares de Turner; Em campos de lavandas de Van Gogh. A imortalidade renasce todas as manhãs Assim ela vem da própria luz Reproduzida em telas, no olhar sensível De todo grande artista. 7Poemas, capa e ilustrações de Airton Parra Sobreira
