Was it okay that I poured nail polish remover down the sink?

I poured some nail polish remover into a small bowl and after I was done, there was some left around 5 0z in the bowl. I went to the sink and poured the acetone in the bowl back into the bottle. About half of it (2/2.5 oz) went into the sink accidentally and onto the dirty dishes/pots that were in there. I washed all the dishes with soap and put them in the drying rack and drained all the water. Now I'm worried. Was it safe that I spilled some acetone into the sink? I heard it is flammable. And would washing the dishes get the acetone off and safe to eat off of?
