Aw shucks. You're buttering me up for a jar of rhubarb-mango jam, I'll
bet. You rascal, you!

AFA the OP's problem with the recipe (see how I may be distancing myself
from it?), he said he followed it to the letter. I ain't got no
flippin' idea about the rise, unless he's got some bogus stuff in the
can. AFA the almond extract -- I like it and I don't measure it (the
truth is out) -- but I know it's at least a teaspoon. I don't measure
the vanilla, either.

Whatever. Thanks for the affirmation, Fleece.
