You know I've lost my marbles when I confess to going to the biggest, newest, friendliest,…read moreimmaculate hardware store in Corona to buy... wait for it... HOMEMADE pies. OK, the hardware store is great too. In fact, it is so mind boggling, big and beautifully stocked, we made a point of bringing the grandkids another time. Just as I suspected, they found things they never knew would be in a hardware store. Fun things like Lego sets, garden art, candy, toys, ice cream, kiddee pools. But my primary interest, and latest chatter around town, was to check out their freezer case which was filled with a variety of frozen fruit pies from The Pie Co. in Ripon CA. Why Ripon is notable? If you know anything about Ripon, you already know it is an unremarkable little town in Central California. It happens to be in the San Joaquin Valley, California's rich heartland. Nearby are vast fruit and nut orchards and rural roads lined with wild blackberry bushes. Apparently, around 2008, some rolling-pin-wielding granny saw real potential here, started a business making these frozen, (mostly) fruit pies, and best of all, distributed them through premiere Ace Hardware stores. These nostalgic pies might even bring tears to your eyes... peach, apricot, rhubarb, boysenberry, apple, pumpkin, to name a few. While I have had better, more flakey crusts, the real treasure is the generous,natural fruit fillings with minimal sugar and less thickener. They're really good. If that's not enough, Ace Hardware is cleverly marketing their own brand of ice cream sandwiches in several different flavors. But the clincher is, they sell them for 8c. Yes, eight cents. How to resist? You dont. They only allow one per customer. But that has not stopped me from a second, same-day visit after hitting up Trader Joe's and Claro,'s famous Italian market found in the same center, The Shops at Dos Lagos. I bring my ice chest. For now, I have pretty much ignored the long aisles of the most incredible, abundant, inventory, tools, hardware, or any of the other fascinating gadgets, toys, supplies they carried. That will come soon enough. But there is no argument this is a very special store. Glad to have a hardware store with a hometown feel and friendly faces.

We interviewed about a dozen contractors, and New Empire was head and shoulders beyond anyone else we contacted. Ed and his assistant, Frankie, were at our house every single day, and often twice a day. They cheerfully answered all our questions and got back to us right away with whatever we needed. All the subs who came out were equally professional and easy to work with. There was always work going on to complete the project in a timely fashion. To be honest, initially we had some questions because it seemed like all their reviews were for remodels of existing kitchens and bathrooms and not for new construction. However, after our project it's clear they are equally skilled in all types of construction. We would 100% recommend Ed and his team for any of your projects.

From the time we first walked into the showroom to having a brand-new kitchen installed, the entire…read moreprocess took less than two months. As a true Libra, I struggled with deciding whether to simply replace the countertops or completely remodel the kitchen with new cabinets. I initially chose to replace just the countertops, but at the eleventh hour - literally the morning of demolition and installation - I changed my mind and decided to remodel the entire kitchen instead. Juan was incredibly accommodating, worked with my last-minute change, and somehow made it happen. We ended up with a completely new kitchen (pantry + quartz countertops / backsplash) within just two weeks. A huge thank-you to Juan (and my husband, lol) for their patience throughout my indecisiveness. Juan, along with installers Alex, Johnny, and Lee, worked efficiently and professionally to get everything done. The team was responsive and hardworking and I'm thrilled with how the new kitchen turned out and have no regrets.

We stopped by their showroom about three to four times to pick out the tile, countertop, cabinets, etc. and each time Tim was very accommodating and patient. He assisted but was not overbearing at all in terms of helping us choose what would look best and gave some great tips and points. Our master bathroom was more than just a facelift, we removed a closet, extended the bathroom, fixed a leak, moved some plumbing and electrical, etc. Each crew member we interacted with was extremely professional, did the work quickly and professionally, and Sam the foreman was helpful in answering all of our questions. Overall, we are extremely pleased with the end product. Tim and his entire team are very patient, communicative, and we will likely use EKB again when we get our other bathrooms and kitchen redone.
