IS THERE SOMETHING I'M MISSING?

Last night I had a craving for an apple martini.  On my way home from the grocery, I stopped in the liquor store and bought some sour apple mix.  I spent a few minutes talking to Barry - my friendly liquor store guy - and decided on the non-alcoholic mix rather than the apple pucker which is low proof but has alcohol nonetheless.  I wasn't in a mood to get raging drunk, just wanted a martini.

While checking out Barry said "Do you need vodka as well?"

"Oh no,"  I said,  "I've got the vodka.  Don't need to worry about that!"  I always have a bottle or two chilling in the freezer.  And since we rarely drink, we rarely run out.

"Yeah,"  I continued,  "there are a couple things we never run out of in my house.  Vodka is one of them .... the other is mustard."

Now I said this only because it is true.  The Husband likes mustard - on most everything.  So we keep it on hand.  That's the ONLY reason I said it.  And here is where I got confused ...

Barry says "OH  oookay ..... I'm not even going to go there!  hee hee <snort>  ha I uh hee heee don't even want to know!"  He broke eye contact with me and fumbled with the sour apple mix.  And I swear, he started to blush.

Now.  Am I missing something here?  Is there some sort of sex game you play with mustard and vodka?  I mean what could have caused that reaction?

Strange.  I'll never look at my mustard bottle the same way again.

you're KIDDING right? THAT'S hilarious that you said that to him. You've got balls of steel! I blushed when I read it, and I'm not even there!!!!

It's MUSTARD! It has vinegar in it. There is NOTHING remotely kinky about that. Vinegar is NOT sexy. We don't run out of diet cokes or toilet paper either, so there.

We DO have a small collection of Cool Whip though...
