Are you sober in Seattle? Tacoma? Arlington? If yes, keep reading. If not, then you may want to check out this post by Axios that explains that Seattle is the #1 city that college students want to move to. (Thank you Amazon, Google, Microsoft, T-Mobile, Starbucks, Google, Facebook, Xbox, Expedia, …the list goes on.)

As a gal who has been sober in this city for nearly 16+ years, I get super excited to see the sober movement starting to open up in the city I love. Just last week, I was having dinner at The Butcher’s Table (located in Amazon-land) and to my surprise and delight, they were fully stocked with non-alcoholic beverage alternatives. Ok, Emerald City, I see you and it’s about damn time. I’m not sure who’s eyes got the biggest, myself or the waiter when I asked for a few brands by name. “We DO have Seedlip!” he declared. “We literally just got the full line in a few days ago and you’re the first person to ask for it by name.”

“Of course I am“, I thought to myself. I may not be a college student anymore, but I’ve still got it! Please refer to me as Alysse “Trendsetter” Bryson, aka the Director of Fun. (Seriously, go check my LinkedIn. That shit is official. #promisescomingtrue )

Masks & Mocktails Event, Sunday, March 27th 1:30 pm – 3:30 pm

For those of you not living your life on Instagram, there is a #sobercitymovement happening there, and from what I’ve gathered, it’s started from right here in our own green and luscious backyard. Three Instagram accounts that are a part of this movement, @sobernseattle @soberintacoma, and @sobernarlingtonwa have joined sober forces to host their first of many mocktail sober celebrations. And YOU’RE INVITED!
