Pull Only Published Recent Posts in Sidebar

    I am hardcoding part of my sidebar and have added code to pull the most recent posts, but it is pulling drafts as well as published posts. How can I pull only published posts? Also, how can I limit the number of posts pulled?

    Here’s the code I have:

    <!--Recent Posts-->
	 <h2<?php _e('Recent Posts'); ?></h2>
<ul>
<?php
    $recent_posts = wp_get_recent_posts();
    foreach( $recent_posts as $recent ){
        echo '<li><a href="' . get_permalink($recent["ID"]) . '" title="Look '.$recent["post_title"].'" >' .   $recent["post_title"]. '</a> </li> ';
    }
?>
</ul>

    I’m running multisite with buddypress.

    Fixed the issue using this code instead:

    <?php $recent = new WP_Query("showposts=10"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
	<li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
 <?php endwhile; ?>
