hobby n. An activity or interest pursued outside one's regular occupation, primarily for pleasure.
I realized the other day (attempting to fill out a profile on here) that I no longer have any hobbies that are outside my regular occupation. How could this be! My days are full from waking to night and yet none of that constitutes a hobby, an interest, a pursuit! What has become of ME! Who am I outside the dishes, laundry and chores!
But perhaps what makes a hobby is not primarily the activity, but rather, it's being primarily for pleasure.
My hobbies are: Cloth Diapering, Homeschooling, Making Montessori Works, Cooking from Scratch, Calculating Every Penny (literally!), Reading five Books a day (short ones, mostly about talking animals and fairy tales) and now, Blogging!
