When breast cancer hit my family, it hit like a ton of bricks. That's not unique to cancer diagnosis at all...but since there was ZERO cancer in my family, breast or any other kind, the news was even more poignant. If you're lucky like me, you don't have much cancer history in your family either...

I am NO baker. I cook. I don't like math; I don't like measuring. It's why I prefer to cook, over baking. However, I put my baker's skills to the test to make a special St. Patrick's Day treat for Keith and I. (I have no idea why I'd do ANYTHING for him after this fiasco...

It's a real pain in the...boob. (We're all grown ups here, and we all deal with it, so why not speak in clear language about it???) Breast pain is also known as mastalgia, and in most cases, is NOT an indicator of breast cancer.  It was once certainly one of MY concerns, as since I've gotten older, my monthly tenderness has gotten a LOT worse.  My doct...

You see lots of things at a doctor's appointment....impatient fiddling, outdated magazines, super awesome 80s-style furniture patterns....

There's never been any breast cancer -- or any cancer, for that matter -- in my family. Over the past 10 years, I've had the pleasure of hosting many breast cancer awareness fundraisers, luncheons, walks and races. Every time I took the stage, I was humbled by the FIGHT the breast cancer survivors had in them...

Every few months, News 4 Wake Up takes you behind the scenes of local radio morning shows, and this week Lauren Hall started with the best of the best... The Mix Morning Rush with Laura Daniels and Keith Kelly on Mix 96!!!

I'm not sure how to pronounce 'Paczki' correctly, but I'm sure it sounds delicious! I guess the best way to describe this traditional Polish cuisine is that they are similar to doughnuts. Now, get set to enjoy the doughnut like goodies cooked up from three authentic Polish bakeries with unlimited Pączki talents.

Today we brought the Morning Rush to St. Mary's School in Swormville, part of the "Morning Rush Home Invasion: School Edition". It happens to be Catholic Schools Week, and the American Heart Association has an initiative called Jump Rope For Heart...

Mix 96 is sending one lucky listener to Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, and Thursday night we awarded the grand prize!
