"Recreation refreshes out bodies and souls. During these Covid-19 days, however, vacations, sports, and parties have to be rethought. My husband and I have enjoyed cribbage and gin (rummy, that is). Brainstorm new ways to have fun at home as a couple."
Any kind of pun or word play would be acceptable here. I am having trouble coming up with something witty.
Thanks!

escoba
"darle a la escoba (el juego de cartas, quiero decir)".
Es el único juego de palabras que se le ocurre a este cerebro chamuscado :P La escoba es un juego de cartas que se juega en España, no sé si el locale es España o si funciona en LatAm/EE. UU. también.

También se podría jugar con la palabra "chinchón", que es un juego de naipes y una bebida.

Rummy
I found the term "rummy" on an entertainment and card games Spanish language website, so there may not be an equivalent. Card games are linked to a country or culture's heritage and customs. Like cuisine specialities (ceviche, lasagna, etc), they not always have equivalence in other cultures.
