A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou — hold the bread!

A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou — hold the bread! — Lovers who have their priorities exactly right. At a certain point all we have are the memories we create together. You don’t need much else.

“A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou — hold the bread!” just means: In this moment all I need is you and maybe a little wine might be nice too. But, if I have “you” I might not even need the wine either.

Husband:

“A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou.”

Wife:

A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou — hold the bread! And if there’s no wine, all I need in this moment is you.

Bread and wine

(n.) a way to refer to the group of friends you're most comfortable and familiar being around.

The bread and wine are a mixture of your "day 1's", "BFFs", "bros", and "OGs." They represent the flesh and blood of your friend group.

Person 1: Who's coming?
Person 2: The bread and wine.
