Lisa G. Bakes Some Mother's Day Cookies

Howard Stern show personality Lisa G. is back and making her Mom-A-Licious Mini Apple Pies.

She is an on-air reporter for Howard Stern's news team at Sirius Satellite Radio, updating live news headlines each morning to Howard and the crew, along with filing reports for hourly Howard 100 news updates.

Lisa said, 'Baking has been my hobby as an adult. I started baking thank-you/birthday gifts for people because I felt they appreciated it more and I was happy, they were happy. [...] I think baking a gift for Mom for Mother's Day is a great way to say 'I Love You". It's so much more from the heart than a store-bought gift! And you don't need to spend alot of dough!"

Lisa also talked about "The Lisa G Mother's Day Collection" -- her own collection of tattoo hearts and roses.
