    What surprised you about the two produce lists? How will you use these lists for your grocery shopping? Have you used these lists before?

    I was familiar with most, but didn't realize kale was on the list. I will be more cautious about my greens purchases and seek out local farm products.

    Frequently I have to leave the water running to wait for hot or cold, as needed. I'll collect that water and repurpose it.
