Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
Melt the butter in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, celery, bell peppers, green onions, garlic, Tabasco, Worcestershire and seasoning mix.

Personal Notes:
We always had this at my Great Uncle James and Aunt Sue Farris's house that lived in MS. I loved visiting them as a kid. They had a farm and were dog breeders. It was always like visiting a real Dr. Doolittle. They had everything it seemed like. We would always visit them when we came for a visit from West Virginia and we always had a homemade lunch. It was always a great visit with great family and great food.
