A little Paquita La Del Bario, a little Ina Garten, Cristina (Spanglish Girl) is a proud Chicana, writer, self-taught baker, nature lover, feminist, and political junkie. She considers her greatest accomplishments to be graduating from college, getting a divorce, and shutting down the Las Vegas Strip in protest of anti-immigrant legislation. When not building the Spanglish Girl empire, she can be found napping, hiking a beautiful trail, or baking-up a storm of delectable treats for family and friends.
