My second electric guitar, an Ibanez RG570 I bought in 1992. Really any Ibanez RG at or above the price point of the RG5xx models (now called the RG15xx models. On the higher end, RG3120, RG8670, etc. are brilliant.). On the much lower end, a Harley Benton SC550 gives 98% of the Gibson Les Paul experience at an unreasonably affordable price (I own a Gibson Les Paul and an HB, and I prefer my HB. Maybe my Gibson is a dud.) But electric guitar in general has brought me so many hours of enjoyment over the last 30 something years it's hard to think of any other physical item that can compete with it.
I recently bought a pizza peel, a pizza stone, a kitchen scale, and some dough boxes and have begun making pizzas at home following Vito Iacopelli's videos on youtube, and I'm now making pizzas that are superior to delivered pizza (though less perfectly round so far) and in an altogether different galaxy than frozen pizzas. I am amazed at how good they come out. I'll never buy a frozen pizza again. And the process of making pizzas is neither difficult nor expensive. At some point I might buy an outdoor pizza oven, but so far I'm satisfied with what I'm getting from my conventional oven at max temp.

For pizzas check out the "G3 Ferrari G10006" - compact, indoor, goes up to double normal oven temperature. I was thinking of getting a wood fired outdoor one until I realised this thing does the job.
