It was Ganesha birthday

Posted by Nick Tay

It was the Hindu god Ganesha’s birthday yesterday and the two Indian boys that work for us had an event to go to so they left early. They came into today bearing food, mostly Indian sweets. Take a look at the Laddu!

Ladu

Whats a Laddu? Wikipedia defines Laddu or Laddoo (Hindi: ?????; Urdu: ???) as an Indian, Pakistani,Oriya and Bengali sweet that is often prepared to celebrate festivals or household events such as weddings. It is made of flour and other ingredients formed into balls that are dipped in sugar syrup.

Here are more sweets. Can you name them all?

On this day in History..
