Serious mom stuff....new kitchen counter tops by Cambria

Ok. 'First world' problem as opposed to being a 'third world' problem. The house we bought when we moved back here to the States has white laminate countertops in the kitchen. While being bright and pretty, they are very hard to keep clean. And, they are literally lowering the value of this house. To me, that is completely mental - white kitchen countertops lowering the value of the house. The market in the area we live in 'demands' stone counter tops. Crazy. While my white laminate makes me crazy, I've seen other laminate that is actually beautiful. But.....no more laminate. We're doing something different.

The countertops we're having installed are made by Cambria. The pattern we picked is called Langdon. No, the kitchen above is not mine. This picture is off the Cambria website. I'm really excited and so very ready for a change. We're also having a new kitchen sink installed. Again, so very ready. The old sink really was looking gross. Low quality stainless steel in my not so humble opinion is never a good choice. We're putting in a better quality stainless. And, I really liked the Cambria product because it's made here in the States from mostly NorthAmerican mined quartz.  So hopefully, nobody died mining the stuff to make my kitchen counter tops. 

Peace.
