Flower

Why I pass so many years without knowing that I can eat flowers? I went to live in the countryside of São Paulo, with more than thirty years and learned to eat pumpkins flowers. It was amazing and unforgettable. Facilities of the countryside, where everybody has a pumpkin plant in the backyard. When I came back to Rio, I forgot about this possibility because they don’t exist in the supermarket. Now, the flowers appears in little boxes and are very expensive. I feel that eating flower is a luxury in all senses. Their delicates aromas, their colors, forms and flavors deserve special attention because they bring me to more subtle frequencies than I am used to.

Aiesthesis

What in myself desire this procession of aromas, this suit flavor, very suit, this silk that strollings through my mouth, this colors that touch me?Why the word is one before and change every thing after a plate like this? Magic, mistery, pure aiesthesys.

Sad

Essênius bread, almonds cream with red pepper, zucchini, cherry tomatos, arrugulas from Angela’s farm, carots and a lot of seasonings to make happy a bad day.

I need to arrive till this age to understand why we are not hungry whem something happens that brokes the life harmony. Eat is a pleasure, pleasure is sintony with the beauty and the contact with the soul, with the life. Whem the death’s presence is there, nothing make sense, even to eat…

Sunflower

Today I got emotional with a ppt that a friend sent me about the sunflower. Beyond it followed the sun, even with a lot of clouds and if the day is really dark, it turns itself into another sunfower… I think it is beautiful!

I will continue to research the thousand and one forms to eat sunflower seeds, who knows if I will learn… This time, I made a paste with rejuvelac and shoyu and dehydrated it. Simple and veeery good!

Luxury

I was talking with a friend and he came with the following pearl of an expression: “luxury is a restaurant where you can phone the chef, warning that you will go to dinner there the next day and she germinates seeds and makes a krud dish for you.”

He was referring to Ludimila from Zuka’s restaurant.
