Ganesh accepting milk.

I grew up in a log cabin in Maine, USA without running water and electricity. In the 1990s my dad was reading the New York Times and he told me that the Hindu god Ganesh was accepting offerings of milk somewhere in India. We had a Ganesh that my grandmother purchased in India in the 1950’s sitting on a shelf. I tried to offer it milk but didn’t really accept it. Now this Ganesh is in my home. Do you remember the miracle of Ganesh drinking milk? Any idea of the age of this Ganesh?I don’t believe this Ganesh was your typical tourist item. Thanks for any info.
