You materialised somewhere dark. You knew you'd turned into a teabag. You could only guess that you had materialised in a packet full of other teabags. You had only turned into the actual teabag though, not the tea leaves inside you.
Eventually the bag was opened and your mother's hand reached in to grab you. Holding you between her slim fingers she effortlessly lifted you out of the bag and dropped you into her cup. You could hear the kettle boiling nearby. You actually found this quite frightening as you waited for her to pour boiling water over you. At length the kettle boiled and your mother lifted it and poured the hot water into the cup. It hit you right in the face and as the water swirled around you you floated and rose to the top of the cup.

you had no idea how long you were in the bin before the lid opened and you again saw your mother. This time she held a plate of wasted food in her hand@ pasta, covered in cheese with diced pancetta mixed in. She scraped the food from the plate and it fell into the bin, landing on top of you and pushing you further into the bin and the stench of rotting food.
