Hello Dearies!! Today no story, no write up, just a glimpse of how I celebrated the Vinayak Chaturthi/ ganpati bappa at my home. I did the modak and the puja before coming to work. For the modak recipe, refer my previous post. Only change I did this time was make the stuffing in a Microwave. What can electronics do for you.. Save time. I made the stuffing in less than 5 minutes. The first minute was to melt the jaggery, than 2 mins for the cooking, stirring in between and anr 2 mins to end the cooking process.. How easy can this get. I made around 18-20 modaks in less than 45-50 mins.
Hope that Ganapti Bappa blesses you all with health, wealth and wisdom.
