Portuguese term or phrase: "Gacinha" eh voce, que deixou sua romantica foto na porta da minha geladeira.
Letter from a friend.
Cathy
You are "witty", who left your romantic picture posted on my refrigerator.
Explanation:
Cathy, I seems that there is a typo in "Gacinha". It should be "Gracinha".

Actually "gracinha" would be translated into "sweety", "witty", "clever" and so forth.

Hope it helps you!
