Deck Divas

The weekly assembly of the Deck Divas brought to mind a fun little trick you can play on one of your friends. BTW, the Deck Divas are also known as “The Winks,” short for “Hoodwinks,” a derivative of “neighborhood hijinks.” They are also the instigators of the Covid Cantina nights. Truly, they are influencers in our modern world. The meeting just reminded me of the silly names I enjoy bantering about.

A harmless little antic you can employ at Starbucks is to be the first one to place your order for a regular cup of coffee and to buy your friends’ fancy drink. Give a false name to the Barista, such as “Nugget, Smarty Pants, Juice Box.” You will receive your plain old cup of Joe immediately, but the fancy drink will require effort. You must leave your friend alone to retrieve her drink when the Barista loudly proclaims, “Old Amethyst, your drink is ready.” Heads will turn, cheeks will redden, and you can have a cheerful chuckle.
