Happy New Year!

This is the time of year where many people decide to make a resolution, often aimed at the goal of improving or bettering ourselves.

And after a season of over indulging throughout the holidays, sometimes a resolution people make is to quit something. And sometimes that thing is drinking.

How to Observe Dry January in Lansing

If you've never heard of "Dry January", it's basically a month long challenge where the person participating goes 31 days without alcohol in any form; beer, wine, or cocktails.

While Dry January could be one reason you don't want to consume alcohol (not that you need a reason to not consume alcohol), there are plenty of other reasons for not drinking, like being pregnant, sober, allergic, or just plain not wanting to drink alcohol.
