“I'm a quirky and imaginative hobbyist who is always looking for the next adventure to light my inner fire. Right now, itʼs all about tasty and wholesome cooking for me!” MARIAH SMITH WHOLESOME GOODNESS During the day, food blogger Smith works as a post-production editor within the video production industry. Since her job heavily revolves around technology, she loves getting to come home and create with her own two hands. ‟“I get to stimulate my sense of taste, smell, and texture while I’m cooking. That never get's old,” she commented in a recent interview. If you’re just getting started with cooking, Smith & Riah have a few tips and tricks that get you excited to get your hands messy with wholesome goodness. The biggest tip is to get creative in the produce section. Even the tastiest fruits and vegetables can get really boring when you're preparing them the exact same way every week. Smith would recommend grabbing a new vegetable from the produce section and finding a new way that you can cook it this week. “This will not only help you learn more about cooking, but it will help you become more creative in the ways that you can prepare healthy meals for your friends and family.” 46
