I've just realised that Velouria has one more thing in common with me. She gets REALLY grouchy when she's hungry and tired.
On Tuesday, she spent one whole day with her school mates at the Hort Park and only came back close to 4pm. Naturally, since it was past her afternoon nap time she was feeling very sleepy by the time she reached home. And because she only had 4 pieces of chepati for lunch, it obviously wasn't enough to fill the insatiable and bottomless pit that she is and so she was also hungry when she came back.
Coupled together, it made her one grouchy little girl! I had to coax her with seaweed, peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a cup of Horlicks just to get her into the house. After sitting at the door to gobble up two packets of seaweed, she finally took off her shoes and went to the room. I made her the sandwich and Horlicks, but the poor girl kept nodding off while seated at the side of the bed. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore so she decided to lie down and it wouldn't take a genius to figure out that she would soon fall asleep with the half-eaten sandwich in her hand.
I then took the liberty to finish off whatever was left of the sandwich and Horlicks.
Yikes! Big mistake. Imagine the monster she became when she awoke and found her sandwich and Horlicks were gone.
