rolls in the hay
Rustic intimate encounters
Rolls in the hay is a playful, somewhat dated expression for sexual encounters, evoking the image of lovers tumbling together in a barn's hayloft.
The phrase suggests casual, lighthearted sex rather than serious romance: They had a few rolls in the hay that summer, nothing more.
