It's here!

My dishes arrived and were ceremoniously unpacked, washed, dried, and put away by the entire family.

Then bidding began. "I want turquoise", "I want plum", and on it went! We got enough different colors for each person to "claim" 2 each. Interestingly enough, I think, my daughter who is in college picked 3 different colors, two of which hadn't been picked yet. So that worked out good. I ended up with sunflower and either lemongrass or shamrock for the colors that were left for me. The college student will probably want to claim the lemongrass instead of shamrock when she actually sees it!
