FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. It is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region of southeast 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 enjoys making food for her family in the same old fashion ways as she was taught by her mother and grandmother in Italy, and also new things she has subsequently learned from family and friends in America. She also enjoys gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Where does Gina get her recipes?
Most of these recipes are from what she learned growing up in Italy, but some of them have evolved over time. She has also learned new recipes from friends and family in America. She is always eager to try new things.
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 and behind the scenes?
Grandma Gina’s retired son-in-law, Nick, does the filming, editing, production, and channel management. Her daughter, Maria, helps with food preparation, kitchen setup and fan support. Also, Grandma Gina usually has one or two grand-kids in the kitchen to help.
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!
How is it that one little old Italian Nonna can make so many people so happy? 🥰 She's priceless.
I don’t think that she is old,she is no more then maybe 63 y old
I love her sooooo much!!!!! I am so happy she is sharing her amazing recipes and love with all of us!!!! Wouldn’t you love to meet her in person???? What an amazing soul she has!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jawel de nonna is de 8o jaar voorbij
Gina is a gift that's how she makes everyone so happy she is happy
She’s not 63, she’s well in to her 80s but looks so much younger. She puts so much love into her recipes, we all need a Nonna Gina in our lives!
Gina is the spitting image of my grandmother from Italy, she and my mom Gina taught me to cook from childhood and I later became a Chef. I love to watch her and I close my eyes and see my grandma (yaya) Thank you Gina! P.S. I am older than Gina now and memories like these are precious.
🙏🏻

She is so sweet, cute and so authentic. I love to watch her.
Delicious
My husband heard you singing and quickly walked in. I told him you were making a meatloaf. He said, "Yay! We're having Nonna's meatloaf tonight!" I guess we are now having meatloaf for dinner. 😂
Thank you, Nonna Gina, for being you!😊
That's too cute.
Will you have extra? I do dishes 😂👌
@@margolane3361 He loves Nonna Gina's recipes. He even gave me her cookbook for my birthday, but I think he actually got it for himself🤣
@@johnnylapsick6826 with Gina's recipes, there is always room for one more! I'll save you a seat!😃
Win-win if you love to cook!😁
The magic ingredient.... Small blessing before hand mixing! 😍
I always learn from grandma 💞🙏🎶 I love her singing to 🙏🌷🤲 praise JESUS for this family channel!!!
Bravissima Signora Gina? You are a good cook and a good singer. God bless you 🙏🌹
I like to watch these videos when I’m eating my own home cooked dinners. I grew up highly neglected in a broken home, these videos give me some semblance of family. Thank you Nonna Gina!
💗🌈💗🌈💗
Bless you ❤️
I kinda feel where you’re coming from. My “grandparents” couldn’t have cared less if I existed or didn’t, and I was always looking for a sweet, loving grandmother to adopt. Sweet Grandma Gina, will you be my grandmother?🥰
God bless my friend.
@@jaimedonley8421 God bless you 🙏
Just seeing our friend Gina makes us happy! We have made many of her recipes, and all turned out wonderfully. God bless you, Gina!
Nonna italo americana siete un capolavoro d'amore.!Vi ammiro e sono felice e orgogliosa di voi.
Dal vostro accento ,mi sembra di capire che siete della provincia di Napoli ? W le donne di un tempo.
Yes, she’s a gem, always glad to see her joyous face!

Yes me too. Just made her pizzelle cookies and amaretti cookies yesterday try them so good
Gina, your singing always warms my heart.
I've never seen such a happy lady she's so adorable.
I wish she was my grandmother
Too that meat loaf looks great
Was hoping that Gina was well and that she would post a video soon. Love me some Meatloaf. God Bless.
Love watching grandma's cooking process... no hidden ingredients... very transparent.
Sometimes it hard to make out what she's saying, thanks for the captions; and great camera view- my compliments to the videographer.
Yay a new recipe! Thank you for sharing Gina! My two toddlers, 3 years and 1.5 years, love watching you cook. My oldest says "Yay! Grandma has a new video!" ❤️ God bless you and your family.
May your years of knowledge live on forever in your delicious recipes. Thank you for sharing with the 🌎. You're awesome!
Diane Al, good evening how are you doing?
Gina, Love you so much, especially the singing - YOu have brought so much JOY for my mother!! Please Keep Singing those older paese Italian songs, We are singing along with you!!!
Rose Anne, good afternoon, how are you doing?

@@austinconnor5297 Good morning Austin (here in Toronto ON) I am doing well, Thank you kindly for asking!
@@roseannef1755 am from the US but am currently out of the country on a mission, how's your day going with you?
@@roseannef1755 hello
gina reminds me of my late grandmother after 34 years of her passing still miss her.gina you are an angel.
Your relationship with your son-in-law is pretty special. It must make your daughter so happy.
Theres my girl, glad to see you looking good and healthy. Looking foward to trying this recipe out!
Grandma Gina makes everyone so happy. I love you Grandma Gina!
Love hearing your voice! God bless you all!
When I cook her recipes, I talk like her. Not to make fun but because I love her so much...and I sing. But I cannot sing when someone else is home. I don't cook as good as Gina and I don't sing as good as Gina.
I never have enough of this sweet woman cookings ,She is amazing, just wonderful!
I wish She could be with us forever,She deserves it! My blessings to Her,always…
You are a ray of sunshine every time I watch you!
My Italian grandmother passed away before I was born, so I wasn’t able to watch her work her magic in the kitchen. So many stories about what a wonderful cook and person she was, but of course, no recipes were written down. You bring such a smile to my face as I watch you prepare your recipes, and I imagine my grandmother must have been very much like you.
How could anybody dislike this video???!?!?!?! Or any video on this woman’s channel! PROTECT GINA AT ALL COSTS
My daughter watches you for hours at a time. You remind us of her Italian Grandma and aunties, who we are far away from. We just LOVE you !!!!!!
Gina you make my day!!!! Thank you for bringing so much joy to so many people. God Bless ❤️
It makes me smile when you sing! I love you Gina, I never knew my grandparents at all, they all passed before I was born. Aloha and hugs from Maui!
Every time I see you in a new video and know that you are well, I am so grateful. Thanks be to God, dear lady.
Hello Gina! Love to you and yours. Meatloaf is one of those things everyone does the way grandma did! Mine calls for the onions to be sauted until soft, the breadcrumbs to be soaked (quickly) in tomato juice, and the meat to be 2/3 beef and 1/3 pork. But in any case, we all love meatloaf!
LOL we both use 1/2 cup breadcrumbs.
I just love when she says "and now we gotta eat" "mmm so good" She is a gem! Thank you, Nonna Gina, for making me always smile.
Dianne Anello, good evening how are you doing?
We love you Grandma Gina!!!!
Thank you to Gina & especially her family who share her with the world Everyone çan be an expert at cooking watching her step by step recipes We love her ❤ The whole world loves you I'm in Australia but I see even Russia loves you ❤😊
How can anyone give a dislike to these videos? Her videos are so heart warming and who better to teach you how to cook than a grandma?! God bless you grandma 😚😚🙏❤
Let me find out who’s disliking Grandma Gina’s videos…I’ll pay them a visit😂
If you don’t like, don’t watch. She’s amazing! The food is phenomenal and the singing is a gift! ❤❤❤ Not to mention she’s an amazing teacher passing on a vanishing art. For free no less. The videos are super well filmed…what exactly is there to dislike?! People are just jealous, miserable and rude I think… 🤷🏻♀️
Gina, you have the same salt shaker as my Mom! Almost the exact same Meatloaf recipe too! She calls it Mozarella Meatloaf and it is phenomenal. Thank You and God Bless :)
Cara Gina ,sei veramente brava.quando to quardo e no come vedessi Mia mamma ❤️ io Faccio quasi Tutto all' Italiano ma qualke COSA malasono dimentichata .io mi chiamo maria e Sono in am de America del 1961 .ma Litalia mi mancha !.. tanto .

It finally got cold in Texas, need more hearty foods. Life has been a little bumpy, needed some cheering up. Along comes Gina with her calming presence and a comforting recipe. Everything will be OK. God bless you Gina. I will make this and think of you.

Why do people love Gina??????
Gina is a simple non sophisticated woman with a big loving heart and personality.She loves people and she loves and walks with God.She does things for others and possess kindness to the enth degree.
ALL THIS AND MORE MAKES GINA A HAPPY JOY FILLED MOM GRANDMA AND PEOPLE LOVER.AND HER SONGS OF COURSE SPIRITUAL ARE A DELIGHT.THANK YOU GINA !
As you were singing tears started...it was so lovely and romantic. I didn't understand the words but I felt emotional,
Thank you for the meat loaf recipe it looks so yummmy your family are so so lucky to have you!
And we are lucky to have you !!!!
Nona Gina, you are blessing so many younger people who did not have a mom or grandma to learn cooking from at home, and ended up getting takeout, pizza and burgers several times a week most of their childhood. And for me, an old lady, I too appreciate learning from you. Our favorite thing about meatloaf are the cold sandwiches the following day! I am glad you have a good son-in-law.
I just love this dear lady and her famous ‘not too much, just a little.’ She reminds me of my Calabrian Nonna. God bless her!!!
Hello Ms. Gina! I have been looking for a meatloaf recipe…I am a kid of the 80’s who’s mom made meatloaf all the time, especially with 5 kids driving her crazy!🤪. Anyway, I’ve been seeking out comfort foods, and then I received a notification…I will be making this tonight! Your the best and I love your vibrant energy and spirit!
My husband & I love to watch you cook & listen to you sing! It is obvious you do it with love! When we found your channel we binged-watched!! I'm of Italian descent and recognize all of the pasta/bread making techniques from my family.
We got the cookbook and tried the Chicken Marsala, which was outstanding. Meatloaf next.
Glad to see the new videos and know you are doing well! God bless you and keep cooking.
It is so wonderful two wake up in the morning and see her making one of her videos because she's always so happy so cheerful hey if you ever get divorced I will bet you that there's lots of men out there in their twenties 30s and 40s that will marry you without a hesitation
Dear Gina , when I Am down , real sad with a loss of appetite , I turn to You
And the Magic is done !
God bless , I thank sssss
Grandma Gina I'm so happy to see and hear you ☺️..I can't wait to try your amazing recipe..I look forward to every video
God BLESS you grandma. I've adopted you as my grandma since I haven't had one since I was 5. You are such an inspiration. I love you
Bless your son-in-law for being so good to you
Keep on singing cara Nonna Gina! Thank you for another of your lovely recipes! So good….
O Grandma Gina, you are a "Sweetheart Chef". When I cook now in the kitchen, I usually sing a song for the waiting interlude, my Husband chuckles. He is homebound but when he hears your opening and closing music, IT doesn't matter what he is doing he stops and hums and jumps. I love seeing him. Plus the added bonus, He knows Meatloaf will be on the table soon. You are a treasure, a gift. May God bless you and your Family. I need a cook book. I made your St Joseph Zeppole's in this year of St Joseph. Superb
Yes. She gave out some excellent tips when she talked us through the Zeppoles. Finally had the courage to try making them after she really showed how to do it.
Hello grandma Gina love your recipes how can I buy your recipe book tks
Thank you! This will definitely be my next meatloaf recipe. As I watch I dream that my grandmother or great grandmother may have been much like this :) I never did know either of them although my mother, always spoke so very fondly of her grandmother. She also never knew her mother. As a side note, my given name is Nona and you can guess where that came from 😊
I love it when Mrs Gina sings she reminds me of my nana I thank you for the recipes because I could not get my grandmother's recipes that my mom had when she passed away a lot of her recipes I recognize for my nana thank you and may God watch over your family
THE MAGIC SAUCE & 🎵🎶 makes it the BEST, GRANDMA 👵 singing 8n the kitchen blessing the food.
Gina, you are so adorable. My mother passed when I was 11 yrs old. My grandmother raised me and she lived to be 100 years old. I miss her so much. I really enjoy your videos so much. I have cooked many of your dishes and every single one has been delicious!!! Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful recipes. God bless you and your family.
Hi Sandra

God Bless you Grandma Gina, You always make cooking fun, especially when you use new gadgets in the kitchen. Happy you sang a song was so nice. You are so happy, makes me happy. Stay healthy so you can keep cooking fabulous dishes.
Gloria Santoro, good evening how are you doing?
Gina I love watching you cook you put a smile on my face, now I have a meatloaf recipe. I get so excited when you make a new video, you are such a delight, I love your singing it makes me happy and you remind me of my grandmother!!! God Bless you Gina!!!
Had to watch this again. I swear, I could watch this precious lady boil water!! Don't know you but love you nonetheless!
I'm Italian and blessed to have been raised by my mom, grandma and great grandma Califatti....Love cooking and Yes, Use your hands to mix that meatloaf 😁😁😁
Lisa Lee, good evening, how are you doing?
I learned something today! To soften the onion before you put it in the spam!
I'll try that next time I make frikadeller (fried meatballs).
The real problem is how much the breadcrums (or flour) soak up - I usually regulate that with adding an egg extra.
Omg perfect timing. I thawed ground beef last night for meatloaf tonight. Thanks Gina I’ll use your recipe today. 🥰
Thank you Gina! We do love you and everything you cook makes me so hungry!! Thank you for sharing. Take care.
Hi, Grandma Gina. I am so happy to see you doing so well. As usual I love your personality. Keep singing always. I love your recipes. Thank you so much for your patience and taking time to teach us. I really appreciate you.
I love you grandma Gina, you remind me of my grandmother Ana, I miss her very much!!! I love your videos, you are a true artist!!!!!
God bless you too Gina that looks absolutely delicious!!
Buon giorno, Nonna Gina! You bring so much joy and positivity to so many people, myself included. I have my own tried-and-true recipe for meatloaf but I am willing to give your recipe a try because I *KNOW* it will be delicious!!! Thank you for being you and for sharing your delicious recipes and your adorable self with the world. Your fans love you! Enjoy your weekend!
Hello Teresa
I completely agree. I'm known for my meatloaf but anything Nona makes, I make. I can't wait to make and eat this version. "Chef's Kiss 💋"!!!!
I love her. Just found this channel four to five hours ago and I haven't stopped watching
You make my heart happy Grandma Gina. My sister and I were just reminiscing about our Grandmother singing to us. As one Nonna to another thank you for your wonderful recipes.
BON Giorno a Gina!
Love to watch you cook. I always learn so much. You are the besta!!!
Good Morning Gina ! Watching you always brings such happiness to my heart. No matter what's going on in the world, you always bring a big smile to my face. Thank you both for making these videos for us to cherish. Would Gina and her family make meatloaf in Italy or is this what's she's learn from living in America?
I think this is an American recipe. In Italy we do it differently. We add to the ground meat every single ingredient at a time and we don’t put garlic, onion or tomato paste in it. It looks delicious though and I’m definitely going to try to make it.
@@Lela68-theItaliangorl un po di aglio ci può andare, no soffritto , un poco come nelle polpette

Peppera hahaha William Shakespeare must must be turning in his grave
Giustu a lilli olio ….whaaat? A lilli garlico

I’m so ashamed people listen
I love Grandma Gina! I get so excited when I see there is a new video. Thank you for sharing with us.
Hi Suze
Sweet little Gina is a joy to watch! Her recipes are just the way I was taught to cook them, and there are some that I haven't cooked for quite a while! I'm so happy when I "visit" with Gina! ❤️
I look forward to these videos more than any on CZcams. Thanks so much!
I love watching you make food. This meatloaf looks delicious. I'll be making it this weekend.

Thanks for another great recipe !
Take care 💕
Brenda
Hello
I can’t wait to try making this meatloaf recipe! You have a lot more ingredients in your meatloaf than I usually put in mine. I am sure that it will taste so much better that my old standard recipe. I just got your cookbook delivered today and it looks fantastic. I especially liked seeing your old recipes written in Italian and the photos of your family. Thank you for your love of cooking and your enthusiasm of sharing your recipes with everyone!
I have Gramma Gina's cookbook displayed my kitchen just like Gramma does. Love you Gramma I'm making meatloaf next week now. god bless you
Loved the prayer right before she mixed it! Adorable..!
That looks delicious Gina, I will have to make it this weekend, will have some mustard mashed potatoes with mine. You and your son in law work well together and you look great in our new top. Thanks for the song and God Bless x
Gina your recipes are great
I made the eggplant parmigiana

My family loved
This weekend is the meatloaf
Love your Singing 🥰
Oh Gina! I am so eager to try this one! I am in the middle of relocating and I miss my own kitchen! I am trying to find a home that lets me cook up a storm, Cooking is what brings my family together and you inspire me to try new things. Blessings and I noticed a very tall person held the camera today! Bravo! Love you all!
Gina looks great, yay!!! They looks delish!! I love when she sings 🎶 God bless you too mama Gina❤
Nonna Gina has made me a more confident cook. She is a absolute gem. Keep the recipes coming. You are a delight.

Darlene Mazurik, good morning how are you doing?
Mouth watering 😋 I'm totally going to use this recipe!!! Always love her sweet singing ❤
Gina reminds me of my Nanna Anna who was my great grandmother. I love watching these videos for the recipes, but she brings back memories of being in the kitchen with my Nanna when she would make her gravy. Gina even talks and sings like my Nanna. Makes my heart happy :-)
I love this women.
Agreed, Happy ❤️ Heart❣️

I was advised that in heaven one has to eat to stay thin if you are cooking it will be heaven ,a saint said when we sing we pray twice. thank you for the gift you are .
Good morning Gina!! It's so good to see you! Thank you for another wonderful recipe! God bless you!!
