Hi neighbors!
The weekend is drawing to a close but I'm not too sad. I've been working hard this weekend and I could use a rest from working long nights. Can't wait for a time where I only work during the days on the ieshineon.com site. Sigh, one day. But I digress.
I can't wait for the weekend to end also because I can't wait for #NationalPieDay, January 23rd! Some super helpful Inland Empire Funsters on Twitter and Facebook - like @dine909, @keatingaround, @ie_foodtrucks and Mary Beth A. have been giving me some great suggestions on where I should go to celebrate yet another holiday dedicated to baked pastries. Love it! So here is a list of some local Inland Empire favorites. If we've missed any please don't hesitate to steer us in the right direction by leaving a post on FB or tweet us.
Oh and if you partake in Pie Day we'd love to see a pic of your deliciousness! Post a picture and tag us @IEShineOn. We'd love to see.
Bon apetit! Till next time...

13. Big Bell's Sweet Potato Pie (Palmdale) - never heard of this place but was doing some research and they sound amazing! Here's an awesome video about them. Honestly, now I can't wait to try!
14. Loma Linda Market (Loma Linda) - Have never been here before but they say it has a bakery. They're a large, all vegetarian grocery ran by the Loma Linda University.
Ok, I know we have a ton more to list but this is it for now. If you want to learn more about pies you can go to the American Pie Council's site - yes, there's actually a pie council. Again, if you think we've missed one please give us a shout on FB and tweet us!
Till next time...nom nom nom....
** EDIT **
We apologize, but we forgot a huge local favorite - Flo's Airport Cafe in Chino! How could we forget their huge servings and their featured pie of the day? Forgive us, Flo's! Thanks for the reminder, @davidallen909!
