My story with Ganpati

My story with Ganpati begins with our Bappa seated gently on an embroidered red cloth at our home. We draped him with fresh white flowers, scattering bright marigolds and deep pink blossoms around his feet. Two clay lamps glow warmly on either side, while hanging garlands and soft lights sparkle behind him. This is how we welcomed Bappa this year.
