This is a place for my children, grands, greats, and chosens to find information, tips, tricks, family secrets and all manner of things that gramma's have traditionally passed down. Now in this information age, the method of passing on this information has altered from "hands on" to "blog" -- the more things change, the more they stay the same. If you weren't "born in" this family, don't let that stop you, come on in and spend some time with us. The more the merrier!

First things first. "Who am I" ... If you think you want to call me ‘Val’, it must be preceded by a title. As in ‘Gramma Val’ (or ‘Gramma Lal’ -- my grandmother). Miss Val and Auntie Val are also acceptable if you are under 18. In all other cases, my name is ‘VALERIE’ -- no nickname. Unless you are my dead Grandmother, DO NOT call me Vali, unless you want to join her. If you are one of about a dozen people (I know who you are), I will respond to ‘Bowzie’ or "Bowz". If I haven’t given you special permission, don’t try it.
8 June 2016 -- I've mellowed a bit since I first posted this. I'm ready for "Vali" to be part of my life. Please, still refrain from calling me "Val". Gramma-Vali, Auntie-Vali, Mama-Vali all sound like me, so feel free!

I know you are wise and how very much you love your extended family, so I look forward to reading "Gramma Wisdom". I wish you well in your new venture (Or should I say, "adventure"?). :) Pooh would be very proud of you.
