It was indeed porky, but also on the salty side. On balance, though, delicious enough!
But so is arsenic and stevia lacks that lovely almond fragrance.
I think you are thinking of cyanide. Arsenic lends your skin a nice gothy pallor.

I totally am. This is why one does not multitask while making flip comments on the internet. You mistake one poison for another. Kinda embarrassing.
I think I am making kitchen pasta for dinner later and it will involve roasty/sautéed mushrooms, a little ricotta and a little smoked gouda. And then a bunch of veggies and salad when I clean out the rest of my fridge.

I have the Kink's "Come Dancing" in my head. And it makes me sad... I miss going out dancing and that song totally touches on what happens when you grow up.

Mmm, that sounds delicious. The pasta, not the poison. Although now that I am thinking along those lines, I wonder if arsenic-eaters liked the taste or just the effects.
Eta: I love that song, Kat, but, yeah, it's sad.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

what makes me sad are all the songs declaring how "our generation will see it right" and such, and realizing how young the singers were then and how old they are now.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
And how much less right it is now.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
We went bike riding today. It was CycLAvia today and the route went right by our house. So we put everyone on bikes and went down to Venice! Much fun, but now my legs are tired and my brain isn't quite up for grading, so I'm punting on that one and doing it tomorrow. Instead I'm sipping on a Lemon Drop.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kat, yes--I do remember the meaning of that song shifting as I grew up. And now it's a personal kind of sad--before it felt like dancing was being taken away, and it's the responsibility of the dancer themselves.
I haven't found an artificial sweetener that I can handle the taste of yet. Come on, technology!
I have switched to agave a lot more, but I think that's part of my question: I'm making 2 changes to the CI oatmeal muffin recipe. I'm sweetening with agave instead of sugar, and I'm using jumbo pans. Two in a row have been too dense. Delicious, but dense and hard to find a right baking time for.
Other than upping the baking powder, what's my best bet for getting air back in? It's a dry into wet recipe where you let it sit for 20 minutes before putting it into the oven, so I'm not sure what the baking soda contributes. I feel the problem is too big for changing the flour to contribute much at this point. But they don't rise until the last 5 minutes of baking, and even then, not more than a centimetre.
Maybe I should hang out in Gelson's and ask passers by for recipe recommendations.

I think it's going to be awesome.
And how much less right it is now.
Sadly.

Why jumbo pans? I can see the sweetener change and roll with it but I need an explanation for the pan change. Because muffins are chemistry at work and changing the playing field changes what they do and how they can even try to do that. Not that I am an kind of expert baker. Or ... baker. Just the math is intriguing me.
