congratulations to andy samberg and joanna newsom for being the most romantic people to have ever existed

So I looked it up, and am not at all surprised by what I found:

Andy Samberg is Jewish.

Why doesn’t this surprise me? Because what he’s describing is literally an ancient Jewish tradition.

Yep, reading this I was like “you mean a yichud?”

Like…I did this. This is what Jews do. Once upon a time, I think it was for consummation? But these days, after a ceremony? Who has the energy! We had a drink, took a micronap, and then dealt with family AFTER.

Yichud is such a great and so Jewish tradition, haha. I found a quora asking “what do they do in the yichud room?” and my favorite answer is the photo of someone’s niece(?) and her new husband – their faces are colored over, but he’s holding up a carton of Ben and Jerry’s “Tubby Hubby” ice cream, and she’s holding up a carton of “Karamel Sutra Core.” 

the CUTEST. 

I think for a lot of people it’s the first chance to have something to eat as many people fast on their wedding day. We just sat alone and took a moment to be together without the crowd of people and it was great.

We called Sushi’s dad and listened to him gas on about the neighbors.
