Can anyone tell me how you get from "Sic fac fritatem de pomeranciis" to
"Orange Omelette for Harlots and Ruffians"? I can see where "pomeranciis"
is probably oranges. And that fritatem is probably fritters or egg
fritters or some such. But where does the "Harlots and Ruffians" get
into this? I do not know any Latin and am only guessing with my phrases.
