Come Play Along.... How Crunchy Are YOU?

Dawn posted a Crunchiness Quiz at No Heavy Lifting. Let's all play along.
From Dawn's blog:

"Crunchy" is a slang term referring to how "natural" a person does things like
parenting, educating their children, cleaning their homes, buying and eating
food, etc.

I've marked my choices from each list. (And honestly, I doubt anyone will be surprised at my results LOL ) Please play along, and leave your link in the McLinky at the end of Dawn's post!
