SOYA FLOUR KHEER

Today is Vat Savitri/Vat poornima.  It is similar to the Nombu, the South Indian ladies observe.   According to legend, great SAvitri tricked Lord Yama, the lord of death and compelled him to return the life of her husband Satyawan.    Hence, married women observe this for the well being and long life of their husband. 

Infact you do not need any reason to make any food items as,  if we want to eat, we can make it any time and no need to wait for any occasion or any guest coming home.
