Great news!

We're getting a grocery store in north Minneapolis, entering the same space used by the former Aldi's. I don't know anything about Colonial Market and Restaurant, but judging from the pictures I see at this page, they'll have the things I want that I can't get at the asian grocery. I saw news stories today from MPR and BringMeTheNews.

Bonuses:

  1. They're based in Minnesota, so the money will stay "local".
  2. The owner (pictured here) describes himself as "Afro-Mexican", so the money will help a minority-owned business.
  3. It would be great if I don't have to walk 1.5 miles through the warzone each way, take bus rides, or pay for delivery, thereby making food that much cheaper for me.

All of this news makes me happy.
