¡Naranjas!

No!
(naranjas = oranges)

La idioma de español es mi coco.
The Spanish language is a challenge for me.
(coco = coconut)

She is rich/preppy.
(fresa = strawberry)

Bailar es mi mero mole.

Dancing is what I love and do well.
(mole = traditional Mexican sauce, rich with a little sweetness and kick)
