Ganesha Chaturthi also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi is the Hindu festival of Ganesha.
This festival lasts for 10 days.
Ganesha is widely worshipped as the god of wisdom, prosperity and good fortune and traditionally invoked at the beginning of any new venture or at the start of travel.
In Andhra, Kudumu (Rice flour dumplings stuffed with coconut and jaggery mixture), Vundrallu (steamed coarsely grounded rice flour balls), Panakam (jaggery, black pepper and cardamom flavored drink), Vadapappu (soaked moong lentils), Chalividi (cooked rice flour and jaggery mixture), Pulihora (Lemon rice or Tamarind rice) etc.. are offered to Ganesha along with Modakams. These offerings to god are called Naivedyam in Telugu.
This is our first Ganesh chathurthi in our new home.
