When I was in college (go Gators!), one night I went out with a group of friends. While I was devouring a cookie sundae, one of them said to me, “You’re like a dessert monster!” He claims it was not supposed to be a compliment, but I rather liked the nickname & it stuck.

My name is Gina. I’m a first generation Cuban American. I currently live near Atlanta with my wonderful half-Italian husband & our 3 kiddos.

I share a lot of different things on this blog – mostly recipes, some family stuff, & crafts/DIY projects. I get a lot of inspiration from Pinterest, & Google searching is my spiritual gift. I’m addicted to coffee (but go decaf when I’m pregnant) & Gilmore Girls (the original series – NOT the revival!). I hate tomatoes, but I love Jesus.
