Yeah! Yeah!!! You people are sick! Shame on you!

Besides, I would have said, until recently, that Brennan was a fryer,
and so would have been dismembered before cooking. Now, however, he is
getting tall and muscular, and, I suspect, a bit too tough for frying.
He fails the test as outlined in Le Menagier Cannibale de Paris, which
states that you can test the age and toughness of a child by pinching
the little fat pad between the ball of the foot, and the toes. If the
pad is hard and gristly, and if there is any callousing anywhere on the
sole of the foot, that child should not be fried.

Trouble is, Brennan is also getting too tall to fit in the oven. We'd
have to _make_ him fit, if we wanted to roast him. So, the question of
whether to put an apple in his mouth might be moot. Perhaps a fricassee
would be the way to go?
