Cavalcade of Food: Green Onion Dip

Spring is here and Ralph is back! He's behind the camera as Kevin shows how to make a tasty Green Onion Dip with cream cheese and lemon juice, using a vintage Sunbeam food processor. Looks yummy - think I will see if I can get M.P. to try this recipe.

P.S. - In case you missed it, you can catch a glimpse of the elusive Ralph in the video I posted last week, beginning in the Diner Museum here. I don't know these fellows personally, but they seem like great guys.

Up until a few years ago I didn't know a green onion from a yellow onion or a scallion....still not sure about those finer points of onionness.; April 17, 2024 at 12:48 PM
Russ Manley said...: I can relate. There are onions and there are green onions (my grandparents grew those). Then there are scallions and there are leeks. Parsnips too, which are tasty but I have no idea about all that. M.P. does, though, and makes delicious stuff with all of the above as occasion arises. I'm just the scullion, which is a different thing altogether. LOL.; April 17, 2024 at 12:56 PM

Prayer for Peace

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, harmony; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.

Churches say that the expression of love in a heterosexual monogamous relationship includes the physical, the touching, embracing, kissing, the genital act - the totality of our love makes each of us grow to become increasingly godlike and compassionate. If this is so for the heterosexual, what earthly reason have we to say that it is not the case with the homosexual?

It is a perversion if you say to me that a person chooses to be homosexual. You must be crazy to choose a way of life that exposes you to a kind of hatred. It's like saying you choose to be black in a race-infected society.

If God, as they say, is homophobic, I wouldn't worship that God.
