The Bags at Barney Greengrass Are Too Thick

My wife and I are moving, and the buyer came to our old house three days before closing as we were clearing out. A little pushy; but it was O.K. She wanted her architect to look at the place, that was the only day the architect was around. And she brought a big bag of stuff from Barney Greengrass to smooth the way. Bagels, lox, you name it. Good food, too, but later I was noticing that the bagels were in a plastic bag that was probably 3 mills thick. That’s too heavy, a waste of petroleum. A sign of luxury, I suppose. Shouldn’t we be weaning ourselves from such piggishness?
