Ahem.

Attention, please. I have an announcement to make.

Apparently, Irishmen are among the top 5 best lovers in the world, according to a new study. I read the article originally here, and for some reason didn't post it on my blog, which means that I forgot about it. I mean, wouldn't you be a little absentminded too if you were married to an internationally renowned sexual champion? (I didn't mean that to make Edmund sound like a world-class man-whore. Noted.)

But then my cousin Claire, who is so much cooler than me for so many reasons, wrote an article about the study here on Yahoo Shine, in which she acts surprised that the Irish are in the running next to those classic bedroom legends, the Spanish, Brazilians, and Italian Stallions. "Perhaps it's the Guinness?" she suggests.

I'm sure she was referring to the traditional drink of choice for not only my husband, but Ireland as a whole...and while it's true that the pint has been responsible for many, many nights of passion since its birth 250 years ago, I find that I have more luck rubbing mashed potato on my boobs and hiding the silverware.
