I use to work at a butterfly exhibit in a museum, worked there for 6-7 years. I would take care of the butterflies and some would emerge with deformities. Some would have twisted wings, or split proboscis. It would always break my heart but the best we could do is place them near food and let them at least eat and be at peace in the exhibit before they passed. The best anyone can do for these beautiful butterflies is to plant native flowers and plant butterfly host plants so they have enough to eat and have plants they can lay their eggs on. You did well and I'm glad you are shining light on this topic ❤
Hi! I was a bread baker for several years…salt slows down yeast which is why your saltless bread grew so much more!
When I discovered your channel, it changed my life. You’re truly the most kindest, caring, honest & sweetest person in the whole world 🥹 I am so thankful you have a KZread channel that inspires so many people including myself 👏❤️

Aww the butterflies are beyond beautiful as are you Allison🤩🦋. Hope your lovely mom has a awesome Birthday🎂🎉!
I just want to say watching your videos has brought such an anxiety and stress relief. even palmer just brings so much joy. thank you for being you. we need more people like you.
I absolutly love your videos. I find myself gravitating to your videos everyday, when I am doing work or house work I will play your videos in the background because you have such a calming and positive influence over my mood. Everytime you expose us to something new that I did not now my heart could open to another topic (aka the butterflies), you have inspired myself and I am sure many others to live a more intentional and beautiful life and I thank you for living the example with such grace.
Hello sweet Allison, I truly love your content and it is a honor to follow you 💛 You really are an inspiring person! I really appreciate your thrifting content because it is important to show people that you can find great quality itens and clothes and is also a way of saving money and help our world. 🌸Sending you lots of love and wishing you a happy and cozy week. 🥰

I've been so excited to see the butterflies ever since they were caterpillars and looking at them progress was life changing and inspiring! I still remembered that one caterpillar had done his business on you, and I always think that one really like you 😂
YESSSSS!!! The butterflies!! Omg so excited! Love you Allison!
You truly inspire me so so much, sweet Allison, to be kind to the environment and speak up for Mother Nature, live more mindfully and romanticize life, and just be the best version of yourself. Thank you so so much!
I have memories of chasing monarchs all around the neighbourhood as a little girl growing up in rural Canada. There were dozens at any given time. Now I see one on occasion and it’s a big excitement because it just doesn’t happen often enough. It’s very touching to see how much you care about them. We need more people like you in the world! ❤️
Your videos make me feel in peace
Good mornig Allison! Today is one of those days that I NEED one of your videos. Will watch right now! Thank you for all the work you put into this. It is very appreciated💝 BLESSING TO YOU!
Aww Allison you have the best heart!💖 Your care and love for the Monarch butterfly is so touching! I have enjoyed watching the butterfly journey with you!🦋 So very special. I'm sorry your butterflies were sick, that had to be hard. I appreciate you learning everything possible about them to help them continue to survive! Again you have the best heart ever! I would love to start a butterfly garden, hopefully one day soon! Iadore you and your channel 💕 You bring so much joy to all who watch you! What a blessing you are! I loved everything about today's video. Thank you for your inspiration, dedication and encouragement! God bless you sweet Allison 💖🕊️ Have a beautiful day 🌻🦋
Such a genuine sweet soul! The way you are into the butterfly’s is beautiful. I personally am not but it’s nice to see you so invested and care so much!
I think one of my favorite things about your personality is your curiosity! I love seeing how you always dive right into things and learn as much as you can!
You can bake your bread into croutons for salads! Add olive oil, salt, and seasoning and then bake until golden brown!
The butterfly encounter segment of your video is absolutely beautiful and magical! So lovely!
Ily Allison! Thanks for never failing to motivate me! 💌
So aesthetically pleasing!🌸
Allison, you are such an inspiration! I love your videos and I especially love how you learn new things and spread the word. Now I'm so intrigued by butterflies and I already searched and ordered some plants to create my own little butterfly garden ☺️😊
This was truly such a beautiful video, I'm so so grateful for your beautiful spirit and wonderful self! Thank you for everything Allison 💗
Hope you had a great weekend! Those butterflies are beautiful!
Hello, Allison. My daughter and I found your channel this summer and have really enjoyed your videos! We love your gentle nature, your refreshing aesthetic, and your love of our Lord. I live in Texas and we get to enjoy the Monarch butterfly migration. Two years ago we had a massive amount of Monarchs and I got to capture their resting period in my yard. It was absolutely amazing! I adore them so much. We have many painted ladies, as well. When I was still teaching first grade, my class nurtured caterpillars and released them in the spring. It was a wonderful adventure, so I have enjoyed your journey to raise these beautiful creatures. Looking forward to your videos!
Awwwweee! I love butterflies so very much! Sooo sweet! I love your day in the life’s! They are so inspiring to watch! 🌸✨🫶🏼⚡️🤍
You always create such beautiful, calming content! So thankful 💕
I’m sorry about the butterflies and I love your passion and kind heart. Your videos truly inspire me.
Hi Alison, I love love your videos 💕 I love how you make us feel like we are there in person. You explain everything so well. God bless you and your family ❤️😍💕
The butterfly garden gave me all the feels! 🥰
I remember the days before my daughter was born and I went into like 5 different stores 🤪 now I limit myself to 2 stops. Im living vicariously through you and your independent self!! Hahah

Hi Allison, I just love your videos! They always put me in such a good mood. I can tell you put so much effort into making them. Thank you for bringing joy into my day. You are a beautiful soul 💜💜
I love your pure heart, Allison! Butterflies are beautiful creatures and you're blessed to live in a state where they come local, all year round. I love your baking inspiration, too!! I have yet to make sourdough bread...I typically buy mine from the store and freeze it... however, it's on my list for the future. 😄
It is so pleasant and relaxing watching all your aesthetic vlogs
My first visit to see butterflies was amazing! Your beautiful story reminded me of how detailed God is in all of His work! So sorry the butterflies passed, and grateful that you shared your experience with us. Blessings.💗💓💕
Wow Allison what a way to surround yourself than with those BEAUTIFUL Butterflies 🦋 my favorite is the Monarch Blessings 🙏

I am all into your butterfly journey! It absolutely broke my heart that your little ones didn't make it. Next time they are going to THRIVE!!!
Someone may have suggested this, but that bread would work for croutons still I think, because to crisp them you could toss this in olive oil and seasonings! Just an idea! 💗
Your videos are always so awe inspiring! ✨Thanks so much for another amazing video, Allison!

I've loved watching your caterpillar/butterfly updates! I had a similar experience with an Eastern Black Swallowtail caterpillar to butterfly and it was incredible. This was back when I was in elementary school and my mom even brought the butterfly into class to we could watch it be released.

I love watching your videos and you make my day and I love seeing you smile in your videos
You can use the saltless bread to make croutons as well
I just catched up on your vlogs, thank you for making such inspiring videos! 💙 I really like how you find beauty in everyday life 🥰
Thank you for teaching us about OE. I didn’t know anything about it!
It's been so fun following along on your gardening and butterfly journey! I love flowers but having wildlife enjoy them makes it so much better. I live in NC and was inspired to finally plant milkweed in my yard this weekend.
Sorry to hear about the butterfly's. Lovely video thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Such a beautiful video!!! Loved it! Have a great day xoxo 💛

Lovely video as per usual- love how you find the beauty in the small parts of every day! Maybe make some croutons with the bread too!
about the saltless bread!! something else you could do is trying a snack that people in Tuscany (Italy) do: sice they purposefully bake it with no salt, they slice it in bite-sized pieces and sprinkle salt and olive oil on top of it and then snack on it. you could give this a try, it is nice even if you have guests over!
Hi Allison! Since you are so into butterflies, you should try planting a butterfly bush in your garden! I got one last year and there is constantly butterflies and hummingbirds on it! :)
Hello I am a new viewer, I really like your content, its very peaceful and your so positive. I love the clothes you wear, the flower dress in this video is my fav so far! I also started laughing when you said you needed to put the caterpillars in your purse while doing errands. I thought it was so funny thinking of you running around doing errands with them in your purse. :)
Hi Allison! Just wanted to pop by and give you a tip for the Birthday sign! I use an air mattress pump to blow up those bday letters. I did it for my boyfriend’s surprise bday party a couple months ago and it worked like a charm and no mouth or straws needed! Hope this helps 🥰🙏🏻🌻🌷🌸☀️
I loved the butterfly garden! :) Don't worry about the bread you could spread butter, salt and garlic or spicies and cooked in the oven.
Very sorry to hear about the butterflies sad ending 😔 I’m an animal biologist and can understand with how much effort you put in how disheartening it was. Thankyou for trying to help them - as they are endangered it’s even more important. It’s refreshing to see a vlogger try to educate people about the world around them xx

You could make croutons out of it. Or put something like olive tapenade or feta cheese on it which is salty already
Allison! I took your advice and went to Gideon’s in Disney Springs while on vacay a couple days ago, and I was sooo excited and thought of you the whole time!.. Unfortunately the line was about 30 people! It was 93 degrees and they were only letting in 2 people at a time!😭😩I do recommend Icon Park’s Huge ferris wheel!😀🥰
Yeah I think dipping in soup could be a good idea or maybe spread on some salted butter 😊
Aquamarine is one of my favorite movies!! I also have kind a fascination with mermaids in general, my bathroom is coastal/mermaid decorated so I’m lovinggg this movie night idea☺️🧜🏽♀️✨🌺🌊🐚
You can make homemade croutons with the bread! You can sprinkle herbs and salt on it while cooking the croutons to give it more flavor 😄

I was going to comment the same! Croutons would be good on soup too!!
You could make some croutons with your bread! Season them after they get crispy.
You can pop the no salt sourdough into the toaster and put some burrata, sliced tomato, fresh basil and a drizzle of balsamic glaze and a drizzle of olive oil. That will give some plain beard some amazing flavor
I love that you named it "sad boy bread" 😄
What a wonderful video 🦋🦋
Really appreciate being informed about the Monarch species issue 😳 thank you 🙏 Really great video
For the loaves I bet turning them into croutons might be good! Then you can season them before crisping them up 😊
