Apple Valley's Bodega 42 Serves Latin American Shoppers Who Once Drove Miles for Groceries

Inside a market on 152nd Street West in Apple Valley, shelves stocked with goods from Colombia, Venezuela and Ecuador sit alongside a tortilla shop turning out fresh corn and flour tortillas every day. Bodega 42 Fresh Market has grown into a one-stop destination for shoppers who once had to drive well outside their neighborhood to find the ingredients of home, and its owners say that mission has only gotten more important as food demand across Minnesota remains elevated.

Football: Ponies fall short against Prior Lake

SAVAGE — Seeking a fresh start in the postseason, some familiar challenges hampered Stillwater in a 28-13 loss to Prior Lake in the first round of the Class AAAAAA football playoffs on Friday, Oct. 30 at Prior Lake High School. The fifth-seeded Ponies (2-7) were locked in another tight battle through three quarters, but unable to make enough plays down the stretch — or avoid their opponents from seizing those opportunities. “Unfortunately, this feels like a broken record,” Stillwater coach Beau LaBore said. “It feels like most of the games that we’ve played.” The Ponies outgained Prior Lake (360-340), gained more first downs (26-14), and held a nearly 14-minute advantage in time of possession while running more than twice the number of plays (82 to 40), but were held scoreless in the second half as the Lakers (5-4) pulled away for their fifth straight victory after starting the season 0-4. Prior Lake’s reward is a road trip to top-seeded Moorhead (9-0) on Friday, Nov. 6 for a spot in the state tournament. The Spuds join Champlin Park (9-0) as the only remaining teams without a loss among the state’s largest schools. Stillwater moved the ball throughout the game against a
