I posted this in another thread, but it fits both places.
I just used the collected water from my dripping faucet to get dishes ready for the dishwasher.
Usually I stand there with the water running while scrubbing food off the dishes getting them ready for the dishwasher. Tonight, I filled the sink with the collected drip water and rinsed them off in there. The water got filthy, of course, but they ARE going into the dishwasher, so who cares?
