I think the curse is broken.

Happy Easter everyone. I'm writing this fast before anything can go wrong.  I hosted dinner this afternoon for some of my family and also invited our new pastor. I wrote a while back about the unfortunate things that have happened in the past when I have invited pastors to dinner. But so far, fingers crossed, everything has gone well. The dinner was good. Several people brought food. The conversation was fun and casual, we played a new game after dinner, and everyone said they had a good time. The guest pastor even took some leftovers home with him. So far, I have not had any calls about food poisoning or other dire problems so I'm putting this one in the success column.
