Congratulations to the ladies of Rancho Cucamonga's Suite 106 Cupcakery!
Sisters Christiana Grammer and Rebecca Grammer-Ybarra were the winners of this year's Small Enterprise award at the ninth annual Spirit of the Entrepreneur Awards.
The awards are presented by the Inland Empire Center for Entrepreneurship at California State University, San Bernardino. The ceremony was held last month in Riverside.
The sisters got their first big push by winning an episode of the Food Network's Cupcake Wars. They are currently planning their second retail location and second food truck.
Suite 106 Cupcakery is located in Victoria Gardens at 12434 N. Main St.
And if you haven't tried it yet, they make a mean organic Pumpkin Pie cupcake. Delicious!
Other food-related winners include Lifetime Achievement award winner Jack H. Brown, Chairman and CEO of Stater Bros., and Social Entrepreneur award winner Barbara Wormser of Redlands' Inland Harvest.

The Indio International Tamale Festival takes place this weekend.
Over the last couple of years, it has become a tradition in the Dine 909 household to shlep out to Indio on Saturday, gorge ourselves on tamales and other goodies and then take in the Palm Springs Festival of Lights parade that evening.
The tamale fest runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both Saturday (December 3) and Sunday (December 4), with a parade kicking off the whole shebang at 10 a.m. Saturday.
The featival takes place in downtown Indio between Highway 111 and Indio Boulevard, along Miles Avenue, Towne Street, Smurr Street and Requa Avenue.
Admission and parking are free.
Of course, it's not all about the tamales. For this year's entertainment schedule (Rose Royce!), click here.

Walnut is not in the Inland Empire.
But, we've ventured beyond our borders in the past.
This event benefits a couple of worthy causes, so I'll mention it for those of you on the western edge of the I.E. or who happened to wander in from the San Gabriel Valley.
Plus, I've got relatives who live in Walnut.
The Wheel Food Fest will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday (November 19) at the Walnut Valley Unified School District Office, 880 S. Lemon Ave., Walnut.
Beneficiaries are the Walnut Valley Education Foundation and the Walnut Valley Food Bank.
Admission is only $1 and a canned food item (or $2, for those of you unwilling to part with your canned goods).
Food trucks scheduled to participate are the Lime Truck, Nom Nom Truck, Don Chow Tacos, Coolhaus, Jogasaki Burrito and Twist Burgers.
For more information, click here.
And if Walnut is too far of a drive for ya, there's also this...perhaps you can hit both!

A new coffee bar, Dripp, opens in Chino Hills tomorrow.
It's not just any coffee bar, however.
They've got something special.
Several somethings, in fact.
It all starts with individually ground and brewed drip coffees and espressos.
They also prepare Turkish coffees.
If tea is your preference, they carry only Harney & Sons Fine Teas...everything from English Breakfast to Hot Cinnamon Sunset.
Then things really get interesting.
They've got a pair of rare-in-the-U.S. Japanese Oji coffee drip apparatuses, which slowly brew coffee one drip at a time. It takes anywhere from six to ten hours to brew, but because they're constantly brewing, you won't have to wait that long for your iced coffee.
And we haven't even gotten to the "Cream Bar."

Who says you have to have turkey for Thanksgiving? Or even ham?
Some of my favorite holiday meals were homemade spaghetti or lasagne, made with love by Mom.
But how do you feel about pizza?
John's Incredible Pizza (no relation), which gave us a scary good $5 deal on Halloween, is offering a similar deal for Thanksgiving.
For $7 per person, you and the family can have all the pizza, salad, soup, pasta, desserts and non-alcoholic beverages you want.
In the Inland Empire, the deal is only good at the Riverside and Montclair locations, so you Victorvillains will have to trek down the hill if you want this deal.
The deal is good from noon to 9 p.m. Thanksgiving day. No coupon is necessary.

We here in San Bernardino County are relative newbies to the food truck game, with the first major food truck festival happening earlier this year, and a lessening of restrictions by county officials happening during the summer.
Claremont, however, is in Los Angeles County.
How come I haven't heard of food truck festivals happening there?
Well, it just so happens there's one coming this Saturday (November 19).
It's being put on by the Claremont High School Music Boosters and will benefit the school's bands and color guard.
Dubbed the Food Truck Mania, it's a smallish event -- 14 trucks are currently in the lineup -- but in my experience, smaller events are better if you want to actually eat something. The lines tend to be smaller and shorter lines usually translate to quicker prep times.
The event will be held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Claremont High School, 1600 N. Indian Hill Blvd.
Admission is $3 for CUSD students with ID, and $5 for everyone else. Those under five are free.
For more information, or to purchase tickets, click here.
(Update: In addition to the food trucks, various student groups will also have booths there, as well as the Mt. Baldy and Claremont chambers of commerce with coupons for local businesses; Claremont Toyota, which is having a drawing for an iPod Touch; and SolarGem giving away a $50 gift certificate. Also, the Garlic Scapes truck has joined the event.)

Well, according to this press release, Carl's Jr. is celebrating the recent addition of Hardee's biscuits to the menu of many (but not all...see below) of its Southern California locations by giving away biscuit sandwiches on Wednesday (November 16).
Dine-in customers in the Inland Empire (plus Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura counties) can receive a free sausage biscuit during breakfast hours (generally 6 to 10:30 a.m.).
Of course, there are caveats.
First, not all restaurants are equipped to bake biscuits yet. Click here to see which locations near you are offering them. For instance, only two of the four Carl's in San Bernardino are. Downtown yes, uptown no. (Update: The map icons may not be up-to-date. The location nearest work -- on University Parkway -- is advertising the biscuits, even though the map indicates they don't have them yet. Sigh.)

Earlier this year, we told you about this year's record-breaking cookie sales by the Girl Scouts of San Gorgonio Council.The top seller was Caitlin Loret of Perris, who sold a staggering 4,051 boxes.
However, coming in this close behind her was Dakota Gregory of Wildomar, who sold 4,000 boxes.
Turns out that Dakota isn't just a whiz at cookie sales. It seems she's also great at selling nuts and candies.
In fact, last fall, she was the number one seller of those items for the council, racking up $1,700 in sales.
Back in August, in recognition of her achievement, the council flew her and her mom, Dani, to Waukesha, Wis., to visit the family-owned company where the products she sold were made.

Driving through Colton, I saw that the former Arby's at 1320 E. Washington St., which closed earlier this year, is being replaced with a George's Burgers.
George's currently has locations in San Bernardino, Rialto and Fontana.
George's has lots of good breakfasts, sandwiches, burgers and Mexican food on its menu.
But, sadly for Arby's fans, no roast beef.
