Recipe for Preserving Children

Found this vintage "recipe" via this week's issue of Kids Craft Weekly:
Recipe for Preserving Children

Ingredients
• 1 grassy field
• 1 half-dozen children (or more)
• Several dogs (and puppies, if available)
• 1 brook
• Pebbles

Method
1. Into field pour children and dogs, allowing to mix well.
2. Pour brook over pebbles till slightly frothy.
3. When children are nicely brown cool in warm bath.
4. When dry, serve with milk and fresh baked gingerbread.

I've just finished reading Last Child in the Woods (review soon!), so you can see why this caught my eye!
