Get to Know Rachel
My fondest TFC memory was when we were preparing for our Magnificat concert in November. Singing Bach with this group is always fun for me, and the Magnificat is one of my favorite works by Bach. Singing baroque music with this group has allowed me to learn more about performance practice and the unique musical stylings from the period.
My life's motto is "Another day another dollar"
I'm passionate about My cats, wine, gardening, crochet, cooking, baking, travelling.
The song I could listen to on repeat is "Saint Honesty" by Sara Bareilles.
This year I want to do more travelling, reading, and finally keep up with my sourdough starter.
If I could only watch three TV shows for the rest of my life, they would be Schitt's Creek, *anything by Mike Flanagan*, and Below Deck.
Sounds Like a Cult is one of my favorite podcasts because the hosts deconstruct modern phenomena in a lighthearted and funny way.
