Kiki's Book of Dreams: Banana Cake

Last week I received a comment which made me wonder! She/he was telling(advice) me to translate my recipes in Albanian language as-well since there were people interested(like her/his mother) but didn't know English and she/he was not in Albania to translate my recipes. And I have been thinking about this since I first opened my cooking blog and I thank her/him a lot for the warm advice and sure I took it on consider and made it come true! I worked for few hours since I have a lot(not so much, but still) recipes and now all Albanians have the chance to read and get my recipes without knowing English language! Today I made banana cake since my sister wanted something sweet, not heavy and not with cacao or chocolate and I thought of this lovely banana cake! Interesting taste and you can recognize the cinnamon, vanilla and sure banana taste!

Javen qe shkoi mora nje koment nga nje person i cili po me keshillonte qe t'i perktheja recetat dhe ne gjuhen shqipe pasi jo te gjithe e kuptojne anglishten. Une kete gje e kam menduar qe kur hapa blogun per te here te pare dhe e keshilloj vajzen/djalin per keshillen te cilen e realizova. Shpenzova disa ore per t'i perkthyer te gjitha recetat, por tashme te gjitha ato jane dhe ne gjuhen shqipe; keshtu qe mos nguroni t'i kontrolloni! Sot bera kek me banane, meqe motres sime po i hahej nje gje e embel, jo e rende dhe pa kakao/cokollate te zeze prandaj une mendova per kete kek te mrekullueshem bananeje. Mund te dallosh me lehtesi shijen e kanelles, vaniljes dhe sigurisht bananes!
