Can someone please invite me on a long trip to Hawaii?
Like pretty, pretty pleaseeee?
I’ll do all the cooking and cleaning for a free room and a kitchen to use. Deal? Someone say YES.
For the record,  I do realize that these are not technically fajitas since fajitas are filled with grilled meat, but for some reason in my mind a fajita is a soft shell taco that always, always is filled with rice too. Not rice on the side, but rice IN the fajita. It’s just something I have always done.
So I am making my own fajita rules and if you have a problem with that than you are so missing out. Don’t be so set in your ways, just get on board with it.
These are actually the second time I have made these and both were within in the same week. The first time I used a pork tenderloin and it was so delicious, but I hated the photos, so it had to be made again. For the second time I had more mouths to feed. Like five extra at the table.
The house is once again a haven for teenagers. Friends galore. The small little kids do leave at night, but the big ones. They stay, they eat and they make noise. It’s fine cause I actually like these kids and they seem to eat whatever, so it’s working out ok. I guess. Or not.
Or really, I am just trying to be positive. Positive thoughts = happy, quietness? I wish.
But I gotta say, when you are feeding kids that are training for things that will eventually take them to the 2018 Olympics they kind of eat a ton of food. Yeah, it’s a lot.
Oh, and I have to say that those little kids around here, they also love to eat. Particularly french toast with coconut whipped cream and fresh blueberries. Can you blame them though? I mean that’s good stuff. Especially the blueberries and coconut whipped cream. Asher and her two friends were pretty cute, pictures to follow.
Anyway, the pork. The second time around I made a pork shoulder roast. I mean, I thought the first dish was good, but the second? Out of this world. So freaking good. The perfect meal. Everyone ate it. YES.YES. YES. I love when that happens.
The sauce soaks into the moist pork that cooks all day in either the oven or slow cooker and it is so good. Everyone, yes boys included, loved this. And if you are not into the fajita part just serve the pork over the coconut rice with the pineapple slaw. But don’t skip the pineapple slaw.
Gosh, the pineapple slaw I was eating it like a salad. With a spoon, right into my mouth. My favorite.
Also, sorry about all the non-heavy, no-wintery foods lately. I am just not feeling it.
I want color! Bright, bright, delicious, fruity color. Bring on spring.

Oh, and I feel I should mention it is still snowing here. STILLL.
