Delicious New Stuff Ahead

If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll remember I warned you that I was going to start doing posts that venture beyond recipes (and if you don’t follow me on IG please do!).  For instance, I love and have very strong opinions on TV, movies, and all things pop culture, and sometimes write about that stuff on HelloGiggles—e.g. here’s a Netflix show I think you should watch if you haven’t already… …and I’m going on record right now as saying I think Meredith and Alex are going to end up together on Grey’s Anatomy. I know, right now it’s like, Ewww, gross—they’re like brother and sister—but I trust Shonda to get us there. So, more on that and other pop culture-y matters later. I’m also obsessed with interior design and have started writing for Apartment Therapy, so I’ll be sharing those articles here, as well as writing original pretty stuff-related posts. Here’s my first Home Tour for them—it’s my lovely sister’s place: Sometimes I’ll be doing a food-related post, but perhaps just not an actual recipe. For …

“Cooking” in Progress

Hi Everyone! I just wanted to drop a quick note to give you a heads up that I’m doing some updates on my site, so you might notice new stuff here and there in the next few weeks. After using this template for about six months, I’m feeling brave enough to attempt to harness the full power of it. 😉 Everything that exists right now should still be totally findable, but if you’re having trouble tracking down “that one recipe—you know…the one with the stuff?,” please do not hesitate to contact me via the comments section or email: pineandcrave@gmail.com. I promise not to—ahem—gum things up too much as I go along… Here I am getting my Bubble Yum on at the Seattle Gum Wall down at Pike Place Market a couple of months ago, the day before they power-washed all the gum off for the first time in 20 years. I haven’t been back down there yet, but I’m pretty sure it’s well on its way to looking exactly like it did here. Also, over …

New Blog Name: in Effect!

Hi everyone! As I mentioned earlier this week, a new blog name has been in the works–and it is now official. Single Servings has become Pine and Crave. You can read a little more here about what I envision for this blog going forward, but I just wanted to address a few questions you may have as to how this blog will be different or the same as Single Servings… (Also, this post was looking awfully colorless, so I’ve included some Instas of stuff I love, just ’cause.) Q: Will you still be writing about food? A: YES! 100%, yes! More and more, I’m just finding myself coming up with recipe ideas that don’t quite fit into a Single Servings box, so I wanted a new blog name that would allow me more creative space. Q: What type of recipes can I expect? A: Very similar recipes to what I’ve already been posting: lots of vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and generally healthy stuff. (Though, I will definitely stray here and there). I’ll also be adding in food ideas for parties, holidays, etc. Q: Will you …
