Rachel Jankovic
Rachel Jankovic is a wife, homemaker, and mother. She received her bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts & Culture from New Saint Andrews College, but mostly reads cookbooks now to avoid story grip (being highly susceptible). In 2003, she married her husband Luke, and they have five children who know how to party. Their little posse includes Evangeline, Daphne, Chloe, Titus, and Blaire. Rachel loves color, fabric, yarn to knit with, kids to laugh at, and laundry (not so much).
