One of my favourite past times is to grab a magazine, find a comfy spot to sit and read it cover to cover and then again. Twice. I have so many nice memories from doing this and I'm almost certain that all of the ones bought are stashed away somewhere in the attic, waiting for when I'm feeling nostalgic on a rainy day.
