attention whore
n.
An insecure person that is so emotionally unstable
and needy, that they have to constantly be coddled
and be the center of attention in any given situation.
Or a person that is so insecure about their own
intelligence and the above average intelligence of
everyone in the room, that they constantly need to talk out of their ass about stupid random things that
nobody cares about, constantly giving little factoids
about the same subject(and the only one they know
about) over and over and over and over again, as
well as speaking in an overwhelmingly loud voice to
overpower anyone else that cares to get a word in. All while being hilariously unaware that everyone in
the room takes a deep sigh and rolls their eyes when
this person starts to speak.

Compersion - Antithesis for jealousy?

Caution: Simple at first but then it develops into real tricky stuff from (apparently) whence it's origins came!

Compersion
A feeling of joy when a loved one invests in and takes pleasure from another romantic or sexual relationship.

Commentary: Compersion can be thought of as the opposite of "jealousy;" it is a positive emotional reaction to a loved one's other relationship. The term was coined by the Kerista Commune. It differs from candaulism in that compersion does not specifically refer to joy regarding the sexual activity of one's partner, but refers instead to joy at the relationship with another romantic and/or sexual partner. It is analagous to the feeling of joy a parent feels when their children marry or that best friends feel for each other when they are happy in a romantic relationship.

well apparently that was the question the little maori boy asked

Jersey milk is slightly yellow, as is butter.........for obvious reasons.
Funny enough the red milking cows come from Scotland or Scandinavia much like the other gingers......

PROMISSORY NOTE A written document in which
a borrower agrees
(promises) to pay back
money to a lender according
to specified terms. A written
promise to pay a certain sum of money, at a future time,
unconditionally. A promissory note differs
from a mere
acknowledgment of debt,
without any promise to pay,
as when the debtor gives his
creditor an I 0 U. In its form it usually contains a promise
to pay, at a time therein
expressed, a sum of money
to a certain person therein
named, or to his order, for
value received. It is dated and signed by the maker. It
is never under seal.

red breeds (milking cows) in NZ mainly Ayrshire followed by red devon and milking shorthorn.

butter tends to be yellow due to the fact it is mainly fat.

jersey milk is yellower because it is higher percentage of said fats than the likes of red breeds or freisen.

probably the under rated breed in NZ is the good old guernsey but personally i preferred the xbred due to their resilience and generally better temerament, not as sulky as a jersey or freisen

Yes but I would include the Finish and Swedish reds
The Mrs parents had South Devons, he used to frown when people thought they were Limousines
Last milking shorthorn herd here disappeared 20 years ago.
Ps the Hereford breeders would be a little upset you overlooked them:laugh:

yip and water

Yip

Nearly all the Gurnseys I ever came across all had Turnip tits.
Funny enough they the first cows imported into NZ (shorthorn)
I like Ayrshires as they are rugged (and tasty) and are great drain cleaner (foragers)
I will say one thing those channel islanders certainly knew how to bred cattle

Anyway you know this word but I doubt most the non farmers do

Heterosis

No its not bad breath.

Which is why crossbreds are so vigorous.

You left out "moist!" :nya: Murray Grey is a breed developed from roan shorthorn cow with angus ( shit sounds like Scottish interbreeding going on,hmmm) and there ain't nothing wrong with Angus as a nice beef eating breed, it's what my family butcher shop sold, which came from a local prize Simmentel breeder. My point is a lot to do with the rearing of them in many instances, and also can have a lot to do with the cook.

"Limousines" wouldn't they be a bit tough, and do they come with a chauffeur?...kidding ... been in the meat trade so know a bit about breeds. Currently chewing through a freezer of small farm reared belted galloway and it ain't too bad at all.

And to sheepies, i'll give my 2c worth, Texel or Texel cross is the tastiest leanest, (moist) superb ya can get yer choppers around at an outdoor cooked meal. Found out about these on a visit to Netherlands and found they are breed here, just got to find a farm that breeds em, apparent;y mungrels to farm as being naturally Dutch tempermental, how do I know, ask SWSBO.

Funny enough those Murrays Greys were created in Aussie
Those older breeds like the Scottish highlander and belted or non belted Galloways do have a certain gamey appeal, bloody thick hides as well.
Pretty sure Lockwood smith was breeding Texals here pretty early on as well as the Belgian Blues, I think the Belgian blues although impressive looking with the double mussels were having grading with failing to make P grade.

mongrel animals to get weight on and not great temperament, semintel ayreshire cross were great to rear for beefies as were ayreshire hereford cross.
ever heard of black factor ayreshires, neither had a neighbor of one of my bosses when i was a young fella, that is till he came visiting one day and asked why we had friesens in a ayreshire stud.

seem to remember a texel tasting rather good at a relatively late hour back in march, have we decided whether that one is happening again there granstar

I have always wanted to try some Romagnola and Chianina but the grading would scare me I think there could be a market for lean beef.
Funny I used to tease a ped freisin stufd who had some red factors about their Ayrshires.
I also know a guy who (for years) used to put a random early Jersey calve into his mates Ped Friesian springer paddock. he never caught on either.........

Heh heh just getting over that one, and that lingering beaut taste just leaving my mouth and starting to taste like whisky now...oh wait!

It wasn't so much the drama of doing a spit roast, it was like...."let's do a spit"..."yeah - great idea"...."um!, we haven't got one....( breaks out welder, rods, and pile of scrap metal)"...."let's make one".
Spit made and a first time attempt turned out on the good side of spectacular for mere amatuers :lol: yeah sometime.

yeah, always preferred meat with a bit of fat, I like jersey with the yellow fat and would take that over freisen any day.

the guy who thought we had black factor ayreshires also believed that the neighbors fed fine chop silage to his deer because they shed their teeth in the winter, after a visit to our farm. this guy grew up on a farm next door and was in his late thirties when this happened but to be fair he had led a very sheltered life

PLUCKYEW .......from the History of the Middle Finger:


Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers.
Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English longbow and therefore they would be incapable of fighting in the future. This famous English longbow was made of the native English Yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as 'plucking the yew' (or 'pluck yew').

Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and they began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, See, we can still pluck yew! Since 'pluck yew' is rather difficult to say, the difficult consonant cluster at the beginning has gradually changed to a labiodentalfricative 'F', and thus the words often used in conjunction with the one-finger-salute!

It is also because of the pheasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that the symbolic gesture is known as 'giving the bird.'

And yew thought yew knew every plucking thing. Didn't yew!!

[granstar]

labiodentalfricative 'F'

The voiceless labiodental fricative is a type of consonantal sound, used in a number of spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨f⟩.

So on that basis we are right to call Steve, Stephfen, aka Steven with a ph

As previous post PHuck it!, ...Fuck it! but the burning questions is what the fuck is IT?

In medieval times was called "water witching", at the time heretics of Roman Catholic faith doing this were considered as doing "devil's work".

Pellucid... it should be easy to understand (pellucid) that this word means translucently clear.

[FlangMasterJ]

Banal - so lacking in originality as to be obvious and boring.

[granstar]

MAILLARD (Reaction) aka browning.
Why one should quick brown/sear meat roasts and stew meats before slow cooking, it helps keep the flavours in the meat.

Some Food science nickedand abridged from the web....
Browning, or the Maillard reaction, creates flavor and changes the color of food.
Maillard reactions generally only begin to occur above 140°C.
Until the Maillard reaction occurs meat will have less flavor. Both caramelization (another thing) and the maillard reaction produce the noticeable brown color of cooked foods.

Technically the Maillard reaction is a chemical reaction between an amino acid and a reducing sugar, usually requiring the addition of heat. Like caramelization, it is a form of non-enzymatic browning. The reactive carbonyl group of the sugar interacts with the nucleophilic amino group of the amino acid, and interesting but poorly characterized odor and flavor molecules result. This process accelerates in an alkaline environment because the amino groups do not neutralize. This reaction is the basis of the flavoring industry, since the type of amino acid determines the resulting flavor.

In the process, hundreds of different flavor compounds are created. These compounds in turn break down to form yet more new flavor compounds, and so on.
Each type of food has a very distinctive set of flavor compounds that are formed during the Maillard reaction. It is these same compounds that flavor scientists have used over the years to create artificial flavors.

Caramelisation is the oxidation of sugar, a process used extensively in cooking for the resulting nutty flavor and brown color ( aka the yummy scratchings in the pan).
As the process occurs, volatile chemicals are released producing the characteristic caramel flavor. The reaction involves the removal of water (as steam) and the break down of the sugar. The caramelization reaction depends on the type of sugar. Sucrose and glucose caramelize around 160C and fructose caramelizes at 110C.

And of course to add resting meat comes part and parcel of cooking meat.
As meat is cooked the proteins in the meat heat up and set. The more cooked the meat, the more ‘set’ the proteins have become. The firmer the meat, the more ‘done’ it is. Why anything over pink in the middle becomes tough as old Johnny Rebs.
When the proteins 'set' they push the meat’s juices towards the centre of the meat.

Allowing the meat to stand away from the heat before serving allows the juices, which have been driven to the centre of the meat to redistribute throughout the meat and be reabsorbed. As a result the meat will loose less juice when you cut it and be far more tender and juicy to eat unless its old cow , and then you haven't a hope.

Cool post food for thought.
They do a enzyme treatment for old cow meat or lower grade tougher cuts to tenderise them, It was locally known here as magic steak.
