If you do happen to get my wife and girlfriend round the same table, please don't let on, especially if my sister's there too.

My sweetie and I are always up for a run of The Badger Game.

Here's a link to the rules, so we can start up as soon as you come over:

It's one of our favorites, so we've got all the expansions and variants, too!

Games I've found work well with my wife:

Battlelore (this one surprised me, although I think it's mainly because of all the fun bits)
Lost Cities (fast and little direct conflict.)
San Juan
Carcassone: The City (again, lots of fun bits, often plays out as co-operatively as it does competitively, which she enjoys.)
Race for the Galaxy (this one worked well, but only after she knew San Juan well.)
