Today I am thankful for... my kitchen. Okay, so the truth is that I am constantly complaining about how small it is and how I don't have enough counter space and how I wish I had a sub-zero and sharper knives and....insert kitchen-complaint-of-the-day here.

Celebrating National Guava Month (Oh, yes I am.)
