    About

    Hey, There! I'm Ashley.

    Hey, y’all and welcome to Pink Owl Kitchen! I’m Ashley, a girl who loves being in the kitchen and bringing people together with delicious, homemade meals.

    Ashley Boyd - Pink Owl Kitchen

    A true Southern girl, I was born and raised in Jackson, MS and now reside right outside of Memphis, TN. I am extremely proud of my Southern heritage and it has a huge influence on the recipes you will find here at Pink Owl Kitchen. From collard greens to catfish, to simple weeknight meals and everything in between - expect a good dose of fresh, homemade food infused with touches of the South!

    How I Found My Place In the Kitchen

    Ashley Boyd - Pink Owl Kitchen

    It was around age 18 that I began to get in the kitchen more and discover my love and passion for cooking. I’ve since discovered that I gain so much joy from creating homemade meals that bring my loved ones together. 

    I have a wonderful husband of five years and this guy has a HUGE family, which is something I definitely wasn’t used to in the beginning, coming from a very small family. I eventually established myself as the go-to chef and hostess for all of our family gatherings and these things were huge, y'all! I'm talking close to 100 people sometimes!

    When I saw how much joy and togetherness my food brought my new, very large family, I thought maybe I could also bring that same joy to other families by sharing my recipes with home cooks from all over. And so Pink Owl Kitchen was born!

    When I'm not in the kitchen, you can find me curled up with a good book or tending to my indoor garden. I also love to exercise and get outdoors for a nice run or walk when I can.

    our family HAS growN!

    My heart is so full and I'm excited to share that my husband, Marlon, and I welcomed our first child into the world on December 7th, 2021! Mavrick Blaze Boyd has completely stolen our hearts and changed our lives forever. We are in love.

    I shared my birth story on my Instagram page and will be posting motherhood updates so be sure to follow along as we embark on our greatest journey yet!
