This is me Grace Adam. The last you heard of me was on Thursday 28 November on my blog http://gracemadam1.blogspot.com. The last you heard of me here was when I was the official amateur photographer for about five seconds. Well, I am back. And let me tell you, I am really cranky.

You know when they say that girls are full of "sugar and spice and everything nice"? Or how when you are eight years old and everyone automatically assumes that all you want for Christmas is a barbie doll with lots of fancy dresses where you can style it and all that blah blah blah? Well, I just want to share with you and experience which I encountered this girl. I hope you never land in my shoes.

Just so that she doesn't sue me, I'll fashion her name "B" because she looks like Barbie, she wants to be Barbie and all she has and wants are Barbies. I landed on a babysitting job one day during this party with little kids when I volunteered to help this person I know in a camp. I should never have accepted that job. Taking care of miss high-and-mighty B. She was ten years old I think and a COMPLETE snob. She has these big brown eyes and straggly blonde hair and about three barbie dolls in her hands. My friend said that she had no friends and she's new so could I possibly spend five minutes with her and get her to eat her tea (bread and jam)? Yes, I told her, no biggie. No wonder none of the five volunteers went with her.

She has these freckles. So, she was designing a barbie doll by putting dots on her cheeks. "My freckles," she said, "This is me." She had this sickly sweet voice. "Yeah," I say, "Now, would you like bread and jam or bread and cheese?"

B: Bread and jam.
So I fetch it and give it to her.
B: I want it in little squares!
So I did but I get more impatient.
Me: Squares.
B: Yuck! You touched it!
Duh I touched it? Then how was I going to slice it? Besides, I was wearing these plastic gloves.
B: I don't want it! Give me bread and cheese! and in little squares!
That little peepsqueak! she's only 10 so I give it to her.
B: I hate crusts.
Remove crusts.
B: Not hungry.
Then I explode.
Me: Here's your sandwich!
Then her lip wobbles and next thing I know, she's crying and throwing a tantrum and wailing so much!

Then my friend hurries over and then her mother comes and happens to fetch her and she rushes over to her "little darling baby, did that mean old girl scare you" and instead of apologising for B slamming the sandwich on my shirt, she glares at me. She begins her lecture on how nobody should hurt her and i stand there dripping in jam.

Huh!
