НЕ ДЛЯ ДЕТЕЙ (NOT FOR CHILDREN)

I WENT TO THE GROCERY STORE to buy some breakfast food for tomorrow (UNG's birthday). I bought bacon, eggs, tomato, juice, croissants, etc etc. I also bought a salami stick to eat on the way home.

RUSSIAN SALESGIRL: "That is spicy. It not for kids."
ME: "Huh?"
RSG: "The salami stick. It spicy. It not for kids."
ME: "Oh, right. Yeah I know."
RSG: "Uh, ... oh. I not mean to insult you. I was jsut saying.... sometimes kids buy... I mean,... ugh...."

She kept looking at me awkwardly and embarrased like.
It was funny. UNG reckons she was hitting on me. I dunno. But it was awkward nonetheless.
