Hi, everyone! Angie Shaghaghi here, back after over three years since Rachael Ray asked the question that would change my life forever, "Hey, Can You Cook?!" The result was an overwhelming homecoming filled with a morning show appearance, a host of charity events and the cover of a local magazine! I jumped head first into my business, Creative Cooks, a cooking program for kids. I truly love cooking, and cooking in front of an audience seemed like second nature to me. So in 2009, I found myself on the "Chopping Block," literally, with an appearance on Food Network’s Chopped!

In addition to cooking, my pride and joy come from the connections that I make in schools, churches and senior centers weekly. I once read a quote that said, "Never give up on something you think about daily." So today, here I still stand, doing what I cannot stop thinking about: Cooking! Oh, and a HUGE thank you to my girlfriends for taking care of my three kids so I could go chase my dream ... YOU are like family to me!
