Hello world! Welcome to Rattle Them Pots & Pans dot com! My name is Harry Conlon and I’ve been contemplating this site for quite some time now and it’s high time I make it happen. I have 4 passions in my life. Graphic Arts, Guitar, Writing and Cooking. I won’t do a blog site on Graphic Arts – I’m not about to give away my trade secrets (Graphic Arts is what I do for a living), I can’t do one on Guitars – I’m not a good enough player for that. That leaves writing and cooking – THIS I can do. (And do quite well I might add!)

I’ve always considered myself a MacGyver of my kitchen. Any kitchen actually. You see, I have an addiction: Creativity. Yes, I’m hopelessly addicted to creativity. (That’s what makes me so good at being a Graphic Artist). There’s nothing better in life than doing what you love and getting paid for it. I love graphic arts and designing. . . But I LOVE to cook too!  Which goes without saying, I love to eat! (but I said it anyway). And I love to share  knowledge of food and cooking with friends and family.

What type of cooking do I plan to share? All types! Fancy-shmancy as well as Easy-peasy. Mostly easy to do that will knock the socks off the people you serve it to. Comfort foods will be a big discussion topic. Your favorite recipe. Your favorite ethnic food. Your favorite cooking gadget.  Real Mayonnaise or Miracle Whip? (I’ve found people are very opinionated about this). Your favorite chain restaurant, fast food restaurant, and mom & pop restaurant. Your favorite dish to take to a pot-luck. Cooking with kids. And on and on and on… Most of all, I’m happily open to suggestions. I don’t want this site to be about me – I want this site to be about US, people who LOVE to get into a kitchen and RATTLE THEM POTS AND PANS!
