OK. I love pork. I love lemon. Pork and lemon go well together. However, this was very.....lemon-y. Almost pucker-y which I'm not crazy about. The recipe called for quite a bit of lemon juice, I don't remember exact measurements because I wasn't the one cooking. It also said to slice a lemon, for passing around at the table. Let me tell you....there was no "passing lemon at the table" because not only would it be redundant, it would've possibly made the meal inedible. While there is no such thing as too much garlic, there is such a thing as too much lemon!
Kids had the same meal, minus the lemon-parsley sauce. Unfortunately, the only thing that went over well was the pasta. Scratch that....Will loves pasta and Sean is going through a phase (a really LONG phase) where he cries before even trying anything in front of him. We went through this with Will though, so I know that there's a light at end of that tunnel. Will is game to try anything nowadays, and has even gotten to be polite about saying that he doesn't like something. And the rule in our house is that if someone tries something and doesn't like it, there are alternates. Let's just say....the kids eat a lot of peanut butter and jelly, or Cheerios and milk. But we keep trying!!
