Refined sugar gave me a headache. And what a surprise..not. I've always heard it's bad for you. 48 hours after I ate it, I had the first real headache of the whole experiment. It wasn't a migraine, but it convinced me that I did not have to try sugar a second time that week.
The good news is I have an amazing recipe for you all. This is a pie (in which I will now use unrefined sugar) that is ridiculously easy to make. Crust and all: easy as pie.

Pour this mixture into the circle and mix it gently with a fork until completely blended.
