      The groceries that come out of the plastic shopping bag?

      They’re the family of the plastic shopping bag?

      So when we’re in the shop, filling the bag, are we impregnating the bag, and the pregnancy lasts for the duration of the journey home, and a typical healthy birth involves removing the groceries from the bag, and putting them in the cupboard and fridge and freezer and fruit-bowl etc.

      Then sometimes there’s a more difficult pregnancy and labour… like whatever’s going on there… up tree branches!? And still there are a family of groceries in there?

      … I think I should stop over-thinking this.

        Back when plastic shopping bags were more common, people would often keep them by stuffing them into another plastic shopping bag. Liz here is threatening a plastic bag that’s stuck in a tree by telling it that she’s going to fill it up with other plastic bags.
