I used to add ketchup to a lot of my dishes but since husband M became diabetic, I started using tomato paste as a base instead. The can on the right is a generic brand, which is usually a bit less expensive. I was surprised to notice they both contain one ingredient, tomatoes! So I would assume the quality is similar. I noticed the Walmart 'Great Value' tomato paste also contains citric acid and some other things, likely preservatives. I didn't buy that kind.
In other news, I've started a happiness journal for this year. It is a physical notepad and I've always enjoyed journalling. I was in church yesterday and felt pretty happy when the 30 strong choir (usually only about 10 strong) sang 'We Three Kings'. You may remember the chorus 'O star of wonder, star of night, star of royal beauty bright...' it brought me back to my childhood when we memorized all these songs! Ironically, later that day husband M said he is so tired of Christmas music at this point.
