Thank you, Francis. Does everybody agree with you?

Hahahaha. Why not?
I will shower you with candied fruit and slowly eat them off your tanned, sinewy body. Once the fruit is gone, I'll have to leave.
I have an appointment at the feed mill.

Sorry for disappointing you but my body is not tanned. Sun is not good for our skin. I'm like snow white...hahahahaha
I don't much care for white women.
I think it's good for you. You wouldn't want some old farmer eating candy off your body. Would you?
Course, if you got any wood out back that needs choppin'.... I'd be glad to help with that.

If you think so... I have nothing else to say.
By the way, won't they be mad at us for being off topic?
It's your thread. You can take this thing in any direction you want to.
Are you familiar with capybaras?
Off topic is usual on A2K threads...
I try to keep things in order around here, but Francis will usually come along and throw a monkey wrench into the works.
Never fails.

Capybaras? Never heard of it. I'll try to find out what that means.
I'll be back later. I need to have lunch now. See you later and thanks for trying to help me.
Ok, when you come back I will introduce you to my friends. I think you will enjoy the company of Slappy Doo Hoo and the Blueveined Throbber.
Thank you everybody for helping me.
Here it is the recipe I needed to translate.
Banana Cake
Ingredients:
2 cups sugar
3 cups flour
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1 tablespoon baking soda
3 large eggs
3 cups bananas, ripe, mashed (about 9)
1 cup raisins
1cup oil
1 cup candied fruits
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Mix together the flour, sugar, cinnamon and baking soda. Add to dry ingredients the eggs, oil, vanilla extract, candied fruits, bananas, raisins and mix again. Preheat oven to 180 degrees and bake for about 40 minutes.
Brazilin Woman, that recipe would be better without the candied fruit.

I don't think so. That's really delicious.
By the way, is it right to say crystallized fruit?
I think to say candied is more common than crystallized, but either would be understood. That does seem like a very sweet recipe, just reading it made my teeth hurt.

Believe me it's not that sweet. Have you realized the quantity of flour? This recipe is for a big cake.
I think "crystallized"may be a term used more in England there America.
