In Other News: Weekend Recap-Spoiled Goodies Edition
Ok so I know celebrities like to go “all out” for their New Year’s Eve celebrations, but these are some looks that I can’t get with…
Ashanti’s new look….I really think she is trying a little too hard….its not believable. The edgy/rockstar look is NOT for everyone…deal with it and be you!
Lady GaGa and blood….
Busta Rhymes…and his ruffles…I don’t think this is fashion forward…sorry
Kid Cudi with a Kilt and Jordans…he gets a pass lol
Jennifer Lopez….I don’t know what to think. I actually like J. Lo but this is just a poor costume choice. She is trying extremely hard to keep up with Beyonce, Rihanna, and Lady GaGa but I don’t think it is working for her *kanyeshrug*
So what do you think?

Happy New Year
Happy New Year everyone! This is a fresh start! I encourage all of you to write down your goals and implement an action plan. Without a target what could you possibly focus on? So lets try to make this year better than the last. Sure you will face disappointment and you may even be discouraged, but remember God will make a way. Keep him first and you will be blessed. Once again, have a great new year! Let us start off the year right! Be positive and have a positive attitude. Remember your attitude determines your approach and your approach determines your success or failure. So what is your attitude for 2010? How will you approach the new year? Be blessed!
Love You All

Thirsty Thursday: Lychee Fizz
Happy New Year’s Eve…lol Well today’s Thirsty Thursday post is special, on Saturday I went to Eatery in midtown for brunch to celebrate my friend Kathleen’s birthday. So we ordered mimosas, bellinis (peach juice and champagne) and my best friend Erica ordered the Lychee Fizz. We were all fascinated by the little bubbles lol this one woman kept starting at the drink and finally asked what it was and ordered the same drink. Ok enough with the story, but I think it is the best drink for your New Year’s Eve celebration. It is very tasty and when the lychee is dropped in the flute non stop bubbles. It is interesting to look at and very tasty. Here is how you make the Lychee Fizz
Ingredients
- one bottle of pink champagne or other pink sparkling wine, make sure it is chilled
- one can of lychee in heavy syrup, make it is chilled too!
Preparation:
- open the can of lychees. Drain the syrup, keep one cup of the syrup to blend with the lychees. Reserve some lychees for decorations for the champagne flutes
- put the other half of lychees into a blender with the syrup
- Blend until the liquid is smooth.
- Put the smooth lychee nectar into a pitcher
- Pour in the pink champagne or pink sparkling wine…slowly, so it doesn’t bubble up, stir.
- drop one lychee per champagne flute, and pour the champagne and lychee nectar into the flute.
- Make sure to serve the bellini chilled.

In 2010…
Ok so this is the last day of 2009…and I am excited for 2010!!!! So a few days ago I compeleted my vision board for 2010 and I wrote out what I will and will not do or will be and will not be in 2010 in regards to my character. I’ve learned that if things are written down on paper I have a greater chance of following them. I can post them places where I would see it everyday to keep me focused on my goals for my character. I am not calling them resolutions because I think it is such a negative connotation with that word. By the end of January or February some people are less motivated and they do not accomplish half of what they said they wanted to. So here is my list along with some pics of me and family and friends from 2009. In the comments section let me know what your goals for the new year are!
In 2010 I will not…
- Lose my faith
- Worry about other people (If I worry what sense does it make that I pray?)
- Be disorganized
- Have a negative attitude
- Be idle
- Be a procrastinator (I’m serious this time lol)
- Be selfish
- Put my wants before my needs
- Be impatient
- Be a SHOPAHOLIC (Are you happy now ma? lol)
- Be unreasonable
- Be inconsistent
- Be all talk and no action
- Say yes to everyone alllll of the time (smh)
- focus or associate myself with people with negative attitudes
- Be judgmental
- Do something that I do not want to do to please other people
- Be unhealthy or out of shape
- Live an imbalanced life
- Be intolerant but I will not tolerate crap!
In 2010 I will…
- Have more faith and continue to put all my trust in God
- Understand and appreciate my blessings
- Continute to educate myself
- Focus on what is important to me
- Be more courageous
- Be more organized
- Live a balanced life
- Manage my time better
- Be prepared
- Eat more healthy foods and exercise
- Jave a positive attitude
- Stick to a budget (I am not a celebrity and I do not need to live like one…my outcome should not exceed my income)
- Be more selfless
- Choos my friends and associates wisely (2009 really taught me this lesson)
- Build more positive relationships
- Be more patient
- Be consistent
- Be reasonable
- Exercise spiritual discernment
- Be more appreciative
In 2010 I will be finished with my Master’s Program woooohooooo prayerfully June 2010!! I am so proud of myself! There are also great things in store for HerGoodyBag! I will wait until after the New Year to share that news I am truly excited. Good Bye 2009…It’s been real, but I am excited for 2010!!!!
