Mother's day discounts and a new tea pet

Thanks to a mother's day discount code, I ordered yet another box of tea. I currently have a stack of 10, yes 10 tea menus on my table. I was cleaning house a couple of weeks ago, and kept putting the tea menues in the same place. I keep reminding myself that booze and associated accessories cost a lot more. That said, I did order some of the more expensive teas I like because I got 10% off.
So I got an old favorite, Ryokucha. This is a pan fired Japanese green tea. It has a bright, grassy scent, and is a beautiful bright yellow color. I've had a rough couple of weeks, so I also did a little online retail therapy and bought a tea pet I've been eyeing for about a year. I found it at a good price. Unfortunately it arrived broken. Since I was too tired to deal with sending it back, I opted for a refund and some super glue. I may opt to replace it with a new one that is not broken at some point, but a bat with a broken ear seems to be emblematic of my life right now. So what do I do? Get out the tea pets and start drinking.
I was quite amused when a friend commented that my new tea pet was surprisingly goth for me, but absolutely adorable. Yes, I'm full of surprises.
