In July 3 years ago I tweeted that Arlington needed more bagel places A lot of people took note of that, apparently? At least 5 more bagel places have opened in recent months! Welcome to the Bagel Renaissance everybody.

One of our contenders has not yet opened!! Will have to wait and perhaps do a more scientific comparison before I take such a controversial position… I have long been saying we need more bagel places in Arlington though so I view all of this as a win, the more bagels the better

@maureencoffeyva.bsky.socialSep 20, 2026, 4:28 PM

USUALLY what I do okay I know mistakes were made!!!
