Restating the obvious--forgive me, Faldage:
I think Faldage's example of unstirring of oil and vinegar is excellent because we do stir oil and vinegar to get the ingredients side by side essentially for the sake of taste and appearance--at least for those who like to stir rather than pour their oil and vinegar separately.
But after stirring, those two ingredients become unstirred--visibly separated again--even though they were never actually combined in the way eggs, flour and milk would have been combined.
I found Faldage's immediate response to Jackie's question of could things become unstirred to be right on the money.
On another track:
People can become unstirred. Think of those who once stirred our emotions who have fallen from grace. We have become, so to speak, unstirred by their presences.
