I’m Deanna!

Welcome to my little corner of the internet – I am a mostly wanna-be homemaker who designs blogs for other people (hence the sometimes wretched state of my own site), takes pictures for fun, reads way too much, has more makeup, skincare and perfume than should be legally allowed, and oh yeah I just started taking flying lessons!

Domestic Chicky started as a way not only to document my first attempts at domesticity (mostly failed), but my growing dudes as well – who were 3 and 6 months when I started, and are now 19 TWENTY and 17…Damn that was fast!

I love sharing all my favorite tips and tricks – fun easy recipes, books, home projects (mine AND others!), my journey being over 50 AND being over 50 and trying to get healthy (grandkids can’t be too far behind right?), affordable clothes, adventures here in Southern California and around the world (just got my passport paperwork!), my favorite beauty products (gotta justify that Sephora VIB Rouge membership somehow!), photography and a peek inside the world of blogging – I’ve worked with some amazing people over the years and I want to share all the awesomeness I’ve learned from and with them.
