There are 2 switches that control both fixtures.
Neither one lights both fixtures.

Bad switch, loose wire or breaker tripped?

Oh, wait!!!!

Does this mean each light will come on, but both lights won't come on at the same time?

If so, that means that a common wire is not connecting them.

All of a sudden, one of our 2 kitchen light fixtures does not come on.

Are you just clarifying that both fixtures are independently controlled by their own switches? Or are you saying that both fixtures are controlled by 3-way switches?

If the latter, first thing I would check AFTER checking the breaker would be the switch itself. Sometimes a bad/old switch will cause this. I'm not familiar with how 3-way switches but there's a chance one or both could be related to a possible problem.
