FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. Her family ran a farm in Italy and she met her husband, Vito, in the same town. In 1970 Gina, Vito, and her 4 children immigrated to America. Gina’s husband passed away in 2012, but she is surrounded by a large family, which includes 9 grandchildren, and lives 5 minutes away from her eldest daughter in New Jersey. Gina spends her time cooking, gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Why does she make such large portions?
When she was in Italy, she would cook and bake in such large quantities so she wouldn’t have to take time every day to make food, and instead be able to work on the farm. Many of her recipes can be cut in half or quartered if you choose to try them out!
Why is no one helping her in the video?
Grandma Gina doesn’t want help! Usually, it’s because we will slow her down or not do it “her way.” For the videos we only show her, but when the camera cuts we jump in and help form the cookies or prep for the next step.
Why don’t we buy her a new…?
Grandma Gina has a closet and garage full of new gadgets, spoons, forks, pots, etc… but she doesn’t like them because she is used to doing it with her old tools. She has fun getting her hands dirty!
Who is behind the camera?
Her retired son-in-law films, her daughter helps her prep, and she usually has one or two grandkids in the kitchen.
Does Gina read the comments?
We print out and show her how much love she gets from all her viewers, and she is very thankful and hopes you enjoy her cooking! Your comments bring her lots of joy, laughter, and inspiration to make more videos to share with you.
Thank you for watching, we hope you subscribe, and we will see you in our next video!

I love her, so very sweet. Reminds me of my grandmother. I never knew my grandparents, but she reminds me of a perfect grandmother. So very kind, sharing stories, and cooking. Keep sharing because this is very precious and simply beautiful.
You’re such a blessing to me Nonna Gina . I could watch and listen to you for hours . You put such love and care and hard work into all that you do . I’ve already made a couple of your dishes ! You’re the best ! Though I don’t know you personally I appreciate this of you snd thank you so much for sharing your time , love and wonderful cooking and your stories .

Great picture of your family!!
Thank you Carey. Sounds better.
I just had a fantastic idea, Nonna Gina! If you took baking orders, say like one a month, something that can last minimum 4, 5 days. Charge whatever price you want, you know people will gladly pay it. Send priority shipping. And people who never ate anything like what you cook, will be able to eat your wonderful food. Oh, how I would request almond cookies. You can charge more than the bakeries in Brooklyn! No? Crazy idea, huh. A lot of issues that can pop up? Yeah, I understand, but can you imagine how wonderful it would be for the recipients of your food?! Ah, it was a wonderful dream, 🍊
Stay healthy. Keep smiling and spreading your joy. We L❤VE you and your videos
