One thing that drives my wife crazy is puddles on the countertop (your basic Formica). A friend's MIL's farmhouse kitchen has a fabulous ceramic countertop that is all drainboard. Is there a way to order a conventional countertop that will drain into the sink?

I also notice this in public lavatories all the time. I would like to set something down on the countertop, but the whole blessed thing is wet.
