I still will suggest first aid for ALL classes, and ESPECIALLY the healing 
classes. A bandage (depending on the level) takes the same time to apply as 
casting a large heal. If you are low on mana, and can bandage yourself or 
someone else not taking aggro, you extend your healing capabilities. That 
is, of course, assuming your main wish in levelling a priest is to heal. It 
doesn't take much cloth to level, really, especially if you work on it while 
questing. It can save pack space as well. Got a couple stacks of silk? Make 
heavy silk bandages, and use them as you run an instance.

Fishing and cooking go hand in hand. It is easiest to level both after you 
have a mount. But, you can level fishing in ANY body of water you can catch 
fish in - meaning that even if the fish is low level, you can still level up 
your skill by catching. So, if you are waiting for party members to arrive 
and you are near the water, go ahead and cast a line or two.

Now that you are limited to only one 'guardian' elixir and one 'battle' 
elixir, food buffs are looking really nice. Being able to cook can earn you 
cash, I suppose, but mostly it will help you in battle.
