  • The Bernie memes have been giving me life since last night! I had to get in on the fun!! This is called the 
“Where is Bernie?!” Edition lol. 
Can you guess the countries?!

  • #WineWednesday 🎉🎉🎉 ISSSA CELEBRATION!! What did you pop open today?!!! Oh it’s been wayyyyyyyy too long since I have posted a normal post like this. 
But today is a great day to start!!! 

If I’m being honest I popped open this bottle last night lol. I got the party started a little early. I have been saving this bottle of Sekt since I visited Mosel Germany 🇩🇪 for harvest in the fall of 2019. I wanted to drink it for a special occasion. And today is most definitely special!!! Whooohoooo!!! 

So as you may now Champagne 🥂 can only be called “Champagne” if it’s made in the Champagne region in France. It is sparkling wine made in the Champagne region of France by the traditional method. When it’s made in other regions of the world it’s sparkling wine and has different names based on the country or region so Sekt is the German word for sparkling wine. It’s usually made with the Riesling grape. This is the Brut style so it’s dry. Most Germans actually prefer dry Rieslings although in the US people associate Rieslings with being sweet. 

What did you pop open today?!! Whatever it was CHEERS!!! 🥂🥂

  • Today is for all Queens!!! Ladies wear your crowns!! Throw on those pearls and diamonds and whatever else you got lol 
Because today we celebrate 🎉 Today we are victorious!! 
Today the first female Black South Asian Vice President was sworn into office!!! The daughter of immigrants!! 

Congratulations to former Senator now VP @kamalaharris the daughter of an Indian mother and Jamaican father 🇯🇲 

I relate to her story so well. My parents immigrated this country in the late 1960s from Jamaica to NYC. They had hopes of pursuing the “American Dream”. They made enormous sacrifices. When I was growing up they told that there was nothing that I could not do. When I told them I wanted to become a doctor, they told me OK-do it. And that’s what I did. Black female physicians are called “unicorns” because we make up only 3% of ALL physicians. 

So today I say don’t let anyone deter you from your dreams. When I look at women like @kamalaharris and my forever FLOTUS @michelleobama I know all things are possible even in America 🇺🇸 where things are so divided right now. I am so elated today!! I pray for the safety of our new leaders and I hope that change is coming!!!

  • For me #martinlutherkingjrday hits differently this year. 

It’s always a day of reflection and remembrance. But this year I keep thinking, what if Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. where alive? What would he think of what’s going on in America 🇺🇸 right now? What would he say about it? What would he do about it? How would he lead us? 

On one hand this year should be a feel good year with massive celebrations especially here in his hometown of Atlanta Georgia. 

Our state turned blue in the presidential election for the first time in almost 30 years sending the first Black/Indian female Vice President to the White House!!
Then....
In an incredibly tight senate race again here in Georgia, we elected our first Black senator Reverend Dr.Raphael Warnock from Dr.Martin Luther King Jr.’s former church-Ebenezer Baptist Church. What an amazing accomplishment!! 

But at the same time I keep thinking about the insurrection at The Capitol on January 6th. I keep seeing pictures of the confederate flag in the the Capitol. Those pictures make me sick and give me chills knowing that flag had never been carried in there before that day. I think about 2020 and all the BLM protests because of the assault on black lives. George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Jacob Blake...

I think of the 70 million +people who voted for a racist, lying, bully, tyrant, dangerous, dictator in office. I see the preparations for inauguration that will not be like any before because of him. I hear talks of civil war and people arming themselves and I think how can this be. Why? It’s 2021. Are we ever going to “get along”?! 

I pray for this country. I pray for leaders to help us get thru these tough times. I pray for our incoming administration. I pray for our new President Biden and Vice President Harris. May they stay safe. On this day I pray that we remember the SACRIFICE Dr.Martin Luther King Jr. made for ALL of us at such a young age. That maybe one day we shall overcome. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

  • What’s your favorite time of the day? Since I am NOT a morning person 😏 sunset is my FAV! Here are some pics from Sunsets on 🌅 Miami Beach 🏖 last week. Take me back!! I ❤️Atlanta but we are landlocked. Definitely something that’s hard to get used to after living in Florida for 8 years. I will need to retire near the ocean or at least on a lake. Yes retire..I’m 50 now so I need to start thinking about retirement lol 😂
