In Our Custody

With complete support (and even packing assistance) Lauchlin's mom handed over the Waterford crystal. Now that we have a place to house them safely, they have come home to live with their intended owner. It could take a lifetime to finish off the collection. Until then, we'll have to figure out which three guests we'll invite over each time we have a dinner party. We have only five goblets and five sherry glasses. In addition to that, we have only one wine glass and two champagne-type glasses. But, they are all beautiful and sparkling in the new china cabinet. I won't spoil the in-person experience for anyone. For now, here is a close-up of a goblet.

We really don't feel privileged enough to have stuff this fancy! So, we drank beer out of them the other night to break-in not only the glasses, but also ourselves.
