5 Famous Meme Peeps 'n Pastry

I've been tagged to do a brand-spankin'-new
Meme by MeHereNow.

As always, I can't simply copy.

I must put my own spin on it.

I encourage those I tag at the end to do the same.

She calls it her "5 famous people you're allowed to sleep with" list.

But the jin is calling it:

"5 famous Peeps and the Pastries I'd eat off of with them"

*giggle*

(I am going to take an immense amount of pleasure in researching this post... um... for you guys I mean. You deserve the best! Yeah... yeah, that's it. I'm sacrificing my time awlllll for you. ;-)

*snicker*

1. Josh Hartnett

Hartnett sounds a bit like Bartlett which reminds me of pears so I think we'd do a Frangipane and Pear Tart with Creme Anglaise for drizzling. *nudge nudge wink wink*

2. Wes Bentley

The only way I'd melt that intense gaze of his would be with my Black Pearl Truffles.

3. Jude Law

My Blood Orange Bavarian Cream would be fit for this Brit.

4. Josh Brolin

I think he might be the only one tough enough to handle my Dark Chocolate Dipped Vanilla Bean Cheesecake.

5. Ashton Kutcher

I think he'd scream for my Cardamom Ice Cream.

FIRST!
The Answers

1) I have always been a closet basketball fan. I watch those tall lean dudes play whenever I get the chance!
FALSE!
O.M.G. I hate basketball. Can't even stand the sounds of the game: *squeak* *squeak* *bam bam bam* *swish* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *bam bam bam* *swish* *squeak* *squeak*

2) I love camping. I used to go once every summer with my parents as I was growing up.
FALSE!
I went camping once with a dodgy group. I had to pee in the woods people. Two men from the group followed me with flashlights so they could watch. The good news- I lost them. The bad news- in the process of doing so I tripped, fell & sliced my knee open. I still have a scar there. Remember- a jins idea of roughing it is a hotel without room service.

3) The worst live concert I ever saw was Guns N' Roses. They really sucked!
TRUE!
Most peeps at that concert some 17 years ago would have disagreed with me. Course, most peeps at that concert were stoned out of their minds... as was the entire band. It was such a let down to an eager young headbangin' jin!

4) I totally enjoyed every entry in the Saw trilogy & look forward to seeing part 4.
TRUE!
What can I say? *blush* Brilliant Cinematic Masterpieces. Bwa-haahahaaaaaa. (Get it? Pieces? Ya know... jigsaw? Ack... well I thought it was funny! :-P)

5) Yours truly prefers to sleep in the buff most of the time.
TRUE!
C'mon... it wouldn't be jintrinsique if I didn't include something a little risqué! ;-)

6) I change the homepage in my internet browser every 2-3 weeks depending on my current obsession.
FALSE!
Same homepage for two years straight. Same homepage y'all should have... jintrinsique baby!

7) I am in possession of a VHS collection with titles such as: Tampopo, Aria, Singing in the Rain, The Evil Dead, Victor/Victoria, Cronos, Looking for Mr. Goodbar.
TRUE!
To think the titles get weirder & more diverse than those.

8) I hate mushrooms. Ewww... they're a fungus!
FALSE!
As a kid the fungus line was my excuse for never tasting them... but once I finally wrapped my jinlips around a portabella there was no turning back & now pasta is not pasta without them! MMMmmmm.

Shall we see who wins now?
Ok then.
The Finalists:

The Mixing Bowl:

Oh Oh Oh!
Who is it???

...and the Winner is...

Congratulations Eternally Curious!

8 Things Meme Contest

Per chance there are a few peeps out there reading that are not familiar with the blog meme- click here for the general rules.

I was tagged months ago by MeHereNow. I didn't forget- life just got in the way! Everyone knows a jin always sucks it up & faces her tagger- the only caveat being: jins usually like to change the rules.
(Rules are made to be broken, aren't they?! ;-)

Don't Worry-
I'm still going to give you 8 facts about moi.

The Catch Is-
Only 4 will be true; the other 4 are absolute jinlies.

The Contest Enters Play-
YOU need to guess which are which.

The Fun Part-
He/she who wins gets a yummy delicious jinscratch made SWEETBOX for free!

The Rules-
One guess per person. The names of those who have the most correct guesses will be tossed into a mixing bowl & one winner will be picked. It'll be my treat to ship a SWEETBOX filled with 2 dozen items of my choosing directly to your home or office anywhere in the U.S. or Canada. (Please Note- Canadian residents may be subjected to an import fee before being allowed to accept your package; this fee would be solely the winners responsibility.)

Remember-
You don't have to be a blogger to play! Simply leave your choices in the comment (epicureans) section after the post along with your first name (or nickname); should you win you can contact me by email with your shipping information.

A Confession-
This idea for the meme contest originated by Dashing Dan. I merely borrowed it & I swear I'll return it one day when I'm finished using it.

Winner Will Be Announced-
In a week or so... let's see how many peeps we get to play!!! Play everyone! C'mon... puh-leeeeeeease? *jin bats her eyelashes*
