January days...🫖 slow sunny mornings, errands, & cooking

[@mariamangion21]

Your videos just feel like a facetime call with a best friend, I love the vibes! A youtuber as inspiring as you is such a blessing! Your kindness and genuine personality always brings a smile to my face 💛 I appreciate you SO much 🩵

[@ALLISONBICKERSTAFF]

YOU are such a blessing. Thank you so much, Maria 💛

I have been growing strawberries for a few years. One thing that works well for me is before you even have berries, paint some “berry” sized rocks red with little dots on them to look like berries. Place them around the plant. The birds will knick their beaks on them when they try to eat them which they strongly dislike and this will deter them from coming back when the actual berries do appear. Keep the rocks there throughout the fruit bearing season as well.

[@ALLISONBICKERSTAFF]

Such a clever idea! Thank you 🍓🪨🦜

Allison I loved your last outfit in the video, the teal sweater with the hair bow and messy hair, so cute!! Long-time subscriber now, I just find your vlogs so calming, I strive to be as laid back and chill as you are in your videos. Thank you for sharing your beautiful life.

[@kathrynh778]

What a wonderful surprise on this cold January day!! I love how you embrace the seasons, it makes our Midwest winters so much more enjoyable doing this! Watching your videos is always so relaxing and puts me in a good mood for the day, have a wonderful day Allison!!

As a long-time subscriber, I have to say, your videos NEVER get old! You are so inspiring and such a special light in my life that I look forward to seeing weekly! Thank you so much for sharing! Have a beautiful, blessed week!

[@malindashumpert7956]

I love the traditional way you make coffee, Allison during the intro and I've been a subscriber since my early college days and I'm happy to have stay around with you. You have a bright and positive personality, Allison! Slow, sunny mornings especially in January, is so calming and relaxing. ☕️❄️

Oh how exciting watching the office turn into a play area 🥰 I love it!! 🩷

[@alexaclaybaugh]

I agree on the timing of making dinners - it always takes me longer than the recipes claim!

[@whimsycheer362]

A pretend campfire set could also be really cute for a playroom fireplace!

AGREED!!!! 🪵 love this idea

Such a fun surprise to get a notification today! Love the homegoods baskets you chose and the scalloped basket, beautiful. The salmon bowls looked so yummy! 😊 Happy winter!!

I agree about the lights on homes. So,e years I say, people should always keep the white lights up all year long. It’s so elegant!

I needed this today. I definitely will be looking at this again. Allison you bring such a positive attitude on your platform. Thank you 🙏❤️☕️

[@AThousandWords]

Tips for removing salmon skin easily: 1) put a cooling rack in your sink, place salmon fillets on it skin side up, pour boiling water over them, then easily peel the skin off. 2) briefly pan-fry the salmon skin side down just until skin loosens and comes off easily.

[@HarryThomasPictures]

Such a relaxed and beautiful January day Allison☕️❄️. We've had a little frost and snow in my area. Hope 2025 is going great for you and your family💫!

[@ALLISONBICKERSTAFF]

I hope you have a fabulous new year, sweet Harry! 🌟

[@judymoore7996]

Always love watching your vlogs. You & Brandon have created such a beautiful life together. The reading/play room is so cute. One of my favorite features are the elephant and bear heads on either side of the mirror. So whimsical! 🥰

My home looks bare without all my Christmas stuff too. Your home looks cozy and warm. Enjoy your January days!

[@annaanthony7930]

A strawberry trick - we always paint rocks to look like strawberries and place them all around our strawberry plants. The birds will peck the rocks and hopefully deter them from messing with the berries!! 🍓 It is not a fix all, but it certainly helps!

[@SamsanSoren]

there was a point in my life when everything seemed off. wrong people, wrong opportunities-it was all wrong. someone suggested i read Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and wow, it opened my eyes. there’s a part where it explains how your energy creates patterns you don’t even realize. chapter 4 hit me the hardest-it’s life-changing.

[@hollygx]

I’ve been here from the start and just caught myself having a moment as I watched you standing with your baby 🥰 I feel like I’ve been right with you through college, your engagement, bachelorette party, wedding, Palmer, pregnancy and now baby Wells! 💌 excited to stay on this journey 🌼💛

[@SAHMOMentum]

Love your videos so much! They’re so calming. Also I need a tutorial on your waves! Your hair is always flawless! ❤

[@AmyFront-c9b]

Alison, so refreshing and uplifting. You are a ray of sunshine! Where did you get the blue, white and green candle on your dining table?

[@Chosenlaur]

Thank you for the information and receipt. Alison, your channel changed my life and priorities.

[@michellegordon1822]

A cute way I've seen to protect strawberries from birds is to paint little rocks to look like strawberries and cover them in a glossy modge podge. The birds will try to poke them and realize they are hard and wont come back when the real berries are there. And its cute and fairy-esk!

[@manamehdi-s7i]

I cook the way you cook! So glad I’m not alone! I always take an hour. Next time I am trying prep like you said! 😅❤

[@TessaOswin]

Preparing all the ingredients can save time if they are all needed close to each other (like in a stir fry) but if the is something that need to cook down before you add others (like onion) then I normally find getting the onion cooking then cut everything else is most time efficient. The one thing that 100% saves time is collecting all the ingredients before start and putting them together, this also means if you are missing something you can improvise or not cook that recipe without getting halfway through before you discover what your missing. Also have everything out gives you a much better idea of what utensils you need (do you need long handle spoons etc to get ingredients out of the jars)

[@lisarobbinson8835]

Hello beautiful sweet Allison 🌞🦋🪴🍄🌿🌺🐝🍓I also love the scalloped detail on decor 💞

[@LJT1183]

Your video today was so sweet and enjoyable!!! LOVE the playroom coming along!!❤️ make sure you anchor your fireplace to the wall for safety!!!

[@missdee3]

I like how you were singing while trying to get dinner going , I used to change my voice and pretend I was Julia Child and I think my baby was either mesmerized or suspicious of who I was in his Mom’s kitchen 😂

[@annericci6733]

Did I spy Wells sitting up in a little chair?! 😍 We love toy baskets!

[@leahgillette7508]

Since you moved in I always thought your office would make the best playroom! It’s looking so cute!❤

[@odalis6177]

A gentle suggestion: tall shelves should be screwed to the wall in the playroom. Also, where small children access toys or books should be simple. The baby is so adorable. Your house looks beautiful like always. ☀️

[@kimmbond2052]

The actual shelf rail is screwed into the wall at the top. It’s not going anywhere.

[@odalis6177]

@@kimmbond2052👍

[@taychai]

You can always just rewire that lamp it make it fit your plug. You could even use a white cord so it blends in with the wall. It’s pretty easy, I’m sure Brandon could do it since I seem to remember him installing lights in your kitchen :) Or you could take it to a lamp repair shop

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Good morning Allison happy Monday morning to you and I hope you having amazing day and you are amazing supporter

[@theblossomingyou1663]

It would look so nice to paint the fireplace and shelves in it and the panelled wall behind the shelves, maybe the shelves too! It all looks so white. Just a tip, you do you 😊

Your videos are like warm hug! Can’t wait to meet our son soon, watching your videos makes me so excited. 🥰 Btw! About the international plugs! Please be careful, make sure you maybe rewire the lamps electrical to American plug system. Moving from EU to USA I learned, different plugs has different voltage power. Over time it can damage the appliance you are using with the adapter 🥲☺️ learned the hard way.. 😅

[@lindaga820]

Hi Allison!! I have that exact same Swiss cheese plant and I want to trail her up wall like you do - how do you affix yours? Thank you for inspiring me in SO many ways!

[@hollygx]

I’ve seen in previous videos that Allison uses green, leaf shaped plastic clips that adhere to the wall and the vines slot into them 🥰 I’m in England though so I’m not sure where they’d be purchased from! 🍃 😊

[@Ffvideo352]

i remember feeling completely stuck, like no matter what i did, life wasn’t moving forward. nothing worked-journals, affirmations, vision boards. then i found Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and it felt like everything clicked. especially chapter 3, where it dives into energy alignment-it’s like it was written just for me.

[@nishanandha1312]

Would you mind sharing the Hot honey salmon recipe you used? I’d love to give it a try! X

[@hollygx]

Also, the alphabet garland could look sweet hung across the large wall shelves where you put the baskets ☺️☺️

[@alexandrairene3444]

@allisonbickerstaff is your plan to still have a garden once Wells is old enough for an outdoor playset?

[@melissamiller-wallace7181]

Did anyone notice she said, "Kids" when talking about the shelves? Speak it into existence! 🙏

[@xoxokali143]

I’m a CM and I just saw your mom on the cast life portal! An article about runDisney! Such a fan girl moment! lol not that I’ve ever met you guys but I’ve seen so many videos lol

[@melissamiller-wallace7181]

You cook with love, so it always takes longer. If you just quickly rushed through it, then it probably would take 30 minutes, but it wouldn't look as nice or taste as good!

[@amberl6417]

This is such a sweet way of putting it 🥹

[@mollyt9652]

If you’re looking for a way to keep birds away from strawberries, I’ve painted rocks to look like strawberries and that can sometimes be a deterrent! Not small enough that the birds can actually swallow and eat just that they try those instead then move on!

[@PawanKashyap-jo6ud]

i hit a point where i couldn’t figure out why things weren’t working out for me. other people seemed to manifest success effortlessly, while i stayed stuck. then i came across Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and the way it explains energy blew my mind. there’s a section in chapter 3 that really stands out-it helped me see how much power i already have.

[@NITA-f7u]

Please connect those shelves to the wall when the baby starts standing and pulling things off the shelves. I wish I could live in Fla in one of the little old cottages there. Not many left?

[@ALLISONBICKERSTAFF]

They are connected already! Thank goodness!

[@rakibchowdhury4207]

manifestation always felt like a guessing game to me. repeat affirmations, hope for the best, and wait. but when i read Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, it all started to make sense. chapter 3 completely shifted my understanding of how energy works. after applying just a few ideas, things started falling into place.

[@Piinkstar17]

kid(s) as in pleural?! is this an easter egg?!

[@AngieNic]

She has said several times in other videos she would like more kids in the future, so that’s why it seems she will say “kids” because it will also benefit more kids in the future 😊

[@AdrianWright-t6p]

Hey Allison I'm back I'm watching your channel right now your video always good

[@lisalisa671]

Hi Allison! At around 7:30 you have this UFO-plaything for Wells in the background. I just wanted to let you know, that we in Europe have had a recall of these toys, because of safety issues. We got fully refunded, even after over a year of having it, so I guess, it‘s really dangerous. I hope, this message gets to you ❤

[@anjabondke8601]

You are so talented with crafts - you could probably borrow a sewing machine and make a dog bed, custom made and sized. It is really easy.

[@ShyamPancheshwar-qk7wk]

one night, i was scrolling aimlessly, frustrated with where my life was going. that’s when i stumbled across Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane. reading it was like turning a key in a locked door. chapter 5 especially stood out-it’s wild how much one chapter can completely shift your mindset.
