Why pasta for dinner again?

Yesterday I made pasta for dinner.
Nothing big about that.
Today I am making pasta for dinner.
Yesterday's was alast resort, escape from boredom of eating rice for lunch and lack of people in the household gung-ho to make rotis from flour and the fridge spat out the ready made roti cover. So I just put some pasta on stove and mixed the ridge gourd curry that I made into it. Husband said I should retain some water. I did but it didnt remain.
This morning I saw a recipe. My eyes mistook the squash for carrot and escarole for spinach. I thought I was looking at carrot-spinach pasta. the recipe seemed complicated with caramelization. So here I am better armed with a simpler recipe to use up spinach which would have gone into lentils had my husband located the bigger pressure cooker in the kitchen. It is not big but it is not totally accessible to me with its potential energy.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on  caramelized banana pudding . And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard.  all purpose flour plays the corn starch  role of thickening the custard. I used  Parle G  instead of vanilla wafers.
