The Tiki Tiki will post regular short videos about living Latino — everything from funny stories about our families to deep insights that make us think more than laugh.
Today we launch the series with a video about a story my Tia, The Cuban Marilyn Monroe, tells and her belief that my grandmother invented cappuccino in a dirt-floor casita in Cuba. Watch to find out how.

That is the cutest, sweetest, funniest story ever! A mi me encanta!
Carrie: You are priceless! Me encantó el cuento del invento del capuccino. I would love to hear you tell more “cuentos”, you have a certain knack for it.
Well done friend! I would love some translation of the Spanish for us non-speaking fans – because we really want to get it!
Ah, you guys are too nice. Thanks for helping me not feel so self-conscious…And Stacey, we’ll work on figuring out translations. Good tip.
HAHA! That was great! You gotta love the Cubans that invent everything, LOL. Oh and you are quite the story-teller, keep ‘em coming!
I enjoyed that so much!
Carrie, all my friends think that you are talking about me. I say “No way” “I am not that Tia and I am not blonde”
WOW!!! LMAO!! Me Encanta!! Awesome job!! Going to tweet now!!
