    1. At Karen's and my planning session last night to design the evaluation tools for the women's program's 3 modules:
    2. KAREN: You know how, when you read formal research literature, you think to yourself, "I bet these ideas were conceived in some sterile, window-less laboratory"?
    3. ABBY: Yeahhh?
    4. KAREN: Isn't it a much better idea to think that all good ideas are born like this? Like, with what we're doing right now?
    5. ABBY: You mean, with blackberry smoothies and vegan chocolate chip cookies in a little café in Xela, Guatemala?
    6. KAREN: Exactly.
    7. ABBY: That's it. You've sealed the deal. I never want to have another brainstorming session that doesn't involve blackberries and chocolate. Not now. Not never.
    8. DEAL WITH IT, future employers.
