Crafts, cooking, and photography... you've picked some very popular and great hobbies/interests and there is no shortage of people on steemit for you to share those passions. For photography you might want to check out steepshot (kind of like instagram), various contests (so many!); I do crafts but only if you like shooting macros then you'll appreciate what I do but @nature.art is a starting point; cooking I don't know much about but @gringalicious might be someone who you will enjoy reading about. Good luck with your steemit journey and most importantly try to have lots of fun!
