Drotara, leveling from 70 to 78 made 1600 gold doing nothing but quests and selling quest rewards. I often have quests that give you 20g a pop. If you are close to your flying mount, take some comfort in knowing you will probably be able to squeeze out another 1.5k gold while leveling. Especially since almost none of the gear between 70 and 77 has sockets.

My gathering skills are up at 375 and so is cooking...now. :) As for the epic flying mount, 5 of my 70's have their mount, I got 2 more 70's that need their mount and I'll get them too.

Mae has a 101 fishing and 141 cooking, so two days ago I spent the day working on her cooking and with the help of guildies who have fishing and the AH, I managed to get her cooking to 375!! I've not gotten around to fishing yet as the task is somewhat daunting, but it's my next goal!! :D I recently set out to do exactly what you suggest in your first point, to max my secondary skills.

It's worth it since you can pretty much pay for the recipe by selling 3-4 stacks of the stuff. And fishing in the Stagnant Oasis means you can get those stacks in around 30-45 minutes. Worth the effort, in my mind. And just be glad you're Alliance. In the Barrens, you won't see the "Crossroads is Under Attack" spam we get every single time we're in the zone.

Not sure I have that recipe though. :( But the fish should still sell, I think. I did get skill up from 150 to 186 yesterday, and hoping to hit 225 (at least) today. Was in STV, but I'll head over to Barrens. But I won't turn on General chat. :p Hey, good tip there, Arrens…I’ll definitely check it out.

Every realm I've played on, it sells well. Now being on an RP realm, I can make some pretty decent cashola while grinding away at my fishing skill.

Getting ready and gearing up. I also plan to level all my weapon skills to thier max. I think I will let devense take care of itself, but grabbing a green "of the noob" weapon off of the AH and using it for a few days worth of dailies now might pay off when I get a nice drop later. Also, althought I don't like to pimp my blog in others comments I do have a guides written for leveling fishin and cooking at the same time. Figured it might be of interest to some of your readers. They can be found here: http://benameless.wordpress.com/profession-guides/ Once again, nicely written. Now I have to get back to my fishing and cooking dailies.....
