Growing up in a conventional household, I didn’t have much of a grasp of the use of lemons beyond making lemonade in the summer.

Guacamole is perfect, and there are so many recipes out there to try. Smooth or chunky, spicy or mild, full of mix-ins or plain, it’s all good.

Of all the guacamole recipes on Pinterest, of which there are many, the most popular one is this “Authentic Mexican Guacamole” from the blogger behind Confetti and Bliss. It’s a restaurant-style guacamole loaded with red onion, tomato and cilantro, and she calls it the “best guacamole ever.” Pinterest’s users seem to agree, because they’ve saved this recipe more than 20,000 times.

We’re not ashamed to admit how much we rely on freezer aisle staples when it comes to getting breakfast, lunch, or dinner on the table. The freezer aisle rocks (and is making a comeback too)! But there are a few items that Kitchn staffers are not so inclined to buy, for various reasons. Sometimes we can make a dish better from scratch, prefer the texture of a fresh version, or just simply can’t trust ourselves to not inhale certain items in a fraction of a second.

Why is it that lazy Susans are basically the automatic go-to when it comes to corner cabinets in kitchens? (Fun fact: The pros call them blind corners, which definitely isn’t a good sign!) Lazy Susans usually still result in a lot of dead space and, let’s be honest, have you ever turned one that didn’t screech something awful every inch of the way?

We get that they’re relatively inexpensive (especially compared to those special shelf systems that are designed to effortlessly glide all the way in and all the way out of corner cabinets) and they’re just what people know. Chances are, this is the system your parents had when you were growing up and you can’t think of what else you’d even do with that space. Well, if you’re renovating your kitchen, we have some ideas.
