What about college courses? Or just take classes in the things you've always wanted to do. Maybe a belly dancing class? ;) A degree or two is always a good thing along with hobbies!

The others all gave great ideas. I did a LOT of volunteering at my son's school, and even taught a computer class for several weeks.

Do more baking, experiment more with cooking.

If you can fit in taking some sort of class, definitely go for that.

Above all, find time for some reading!
