Good bye yellow sink! And good riddance! Since we moved in the little faucet spray attachment didn't work. It would trickle out a little bit if we were lucky. One day I was so fed up, I decided I was going to try to fix it. John walked into the kitchen as I was using pliers trying to get it apart and said "you know, we could just replace that thing". I thought about it. Maybe just get a whole new faucet, and get rid of the yellow sink we HATE while we are at it.
After looking, we discovered white is hard to find, and actually costs more than the black they had in stock, and stainless doesn't really go well in this house. So if we were going to do it, we should just go with black and replace the counters too because the black doesn't really go with the current counters. This is major feature creep as we software writers call it. He stopped me before I could suggest new cabinets ;) That will have to be for update round two!

This was what it looked like when we moved in - yellow sink with matching yellow oven, and laminate butcher block design counter tops - 70's original awesomeness.
We decided to just do laminate counters again, as more of a temporary update. My end goal is new cabinets, new flooring, and a tiled back splash, but those were not going to happen in this update.
