Homemade Onion Dip

March 19, 2013 By Kara 3 Comments

I was attending a get together this weekend with some good friends and I wanted to bring a quick appetizer/snack.  I am the weirdo of the group with my food ingredient obsession.  In my mind it is just a healthy concern for the chemicals that we put in and on our bodies.  I ran into the grocery store “real quick” to grab onion dip and chips. I thought onion dip sounded good—I hadn’t eaten it in ages.  As usual, my “real quick” turned into “real long” as I read the back of all of the onion dip containers.  UGH!  I was going nuts.  Just look below at the label for Lay’s French Onion Dip!  In addition to the ingredients that cannot be spoken (ie pronounced), there is the typical mystery “natural flavors” and of course MSG.  

In the end, I grabbed a bag of pretzels and left the store (I did not read the back of the bag).

Still desiring onion dip I dug up a recipe I’ve used in the past that I would have made if I had sour cream in the fridge that morning. What are some of your favorite dips?

    It’s very straightforward to find out any matter on web as compared to textbooks, as I found this article at this site.

“People are sleepwalking through evil. They hav “People are sleepwalking through evil.

They have become so accustomed to the behavior of the dark and demonic that they hardly notice it, much less recognize if for what it is. 

So many people have dismissed the existence of evil, recoiling from the very word. 

Such arrogance is evil’s greatest asset.”
-Caroline Myss

This excerpt is powerful. Caroline continues to share more on this and what she says resonates with me and things I’ve been sharing here via FB Live and others posts. I’m also sharing over in my Telegram Channel.

When we get quiet and really listen we can see, hear, or feel the evil at work within us and within others. 

We can also see the good working to overcome it.

Every moment we get to choose.

Each small choice illuminates our next steps. Our steps create a path. 

Are you choosing a path of sleepwalking with evil or walking in faith with good?

Our privateTelegram chat group is having a zoom meetup tonight.

Michele and I are going to chat with you and share some experiences we’ve had that helped us BE THE LIGHT. ✨
You know how I talk about how God whispers to us? You know how I talk about how God whispers to us? It’s like whispers of divine inspiration, warnings, ideas, encouragement...

God: “Hey Kara, do you really think that’s a good idea?”

Me: “Hold my beer.”

God: “Kara, you’re doing it again. How did that work out for you last time?”

Me: “Hold my beer.”

God: “Kara, third strike, you’re doing it again...it keeps not working out this way...”

Me: “Hold my beer.”

God: [Throws brick to upset my plans and wake me up.]

Me: “Oh snap, what was I thinking??? Maybe it’s time to try a new approach...”

What’s a brick look like? 

For me, bricks usually show up as an illness, or some sort of physical ailment like stubbing my toe, slipping and falling etc. Sometimes it’s my laptop or phone breaking. Bricks are meant to wake us up, snap us out of the hypnotic rhythm so we can choose to pivot.

I’m seeing God throwing some boulders right now. 

I prefer whispers. Apparently the time for whispers has passed...

Don’t leave Social Media. Shift the narrative. Don’t leave Social Media.

Shift the narrative.

Flood the feed with what you WANT to see.

Post and go. 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃

I love you.
I accept you.
I see you.
You are worthy.
You are enough.
You are deserving.

We get to choose to shift the narrative.
Before you post, before you consume content; CHOOSE.

What are you feeding? 
What do you want to starve?

Starve what you don’t want, feed what you want.

Collectively we could shift everything today. 
We get to choose.
What will you decide?

We all get to make decisions about our life and we We all get to make decisions about our life and we also get to live with the consequences of our choices. 

All choices are on a journey of learning and growing—even the ones that make our journey a little harder. 

I saw that a friend made a choice I am not in alignment with—it actually triggered me emotionally quite a bit.

I didn’t comment on it, I just sat with it for a while and examined WHY I felt the way I did. It revealed a lot to me about how
I feel about choices I’ve made. It was like looking in a mirror. I’ve been there before myself.

Now, hours later, I’m at peace with my friend’s choice. I won’t make the same one but I support my friend’s right to choose their path.

I will not shame my friend.
I will not argue with my friend, what is done is done, we simply move forward from here.
I didn’t I friend or unfollow, I just digested the feelings, received the lesson and moved on. 

We all have choices to make in every moment and do the best we can with the information we have accepted. 💞

Choices have consequences and other people’s choices are not my responsibility.

Ever wonder how to pray? How to dive deep into that place where peace washes over you, where you feel cleansed, where your healing light can expand from within and touch the hearts of those you hold in prayer? 

I’m arranging a free zoom to discuss this topic with someone who has guided and helped me deeply in 2020. Comment below and I’ll make sure you’re notified when we set the date. 💞🙌🏻🙏🏻
