Recycled pen

 I picked this up from a bowl beside some coffee cups, thinking it was a sachet of sugar.  Tried as I might, I couldn't tear the sachet apart.  I finally managed to pull it apart and lo and behold, it wasn't a sachet of sugar but a pen made of recycled paper.
I didn't know whether to laugh at my own stupidity or marvel at the creativity of rolling recycled paper around the stem of a pen to make it a real working pen.
The feel of a paper stem sure beats that of a plastic stem like any other ordinary pen.
