You have a magic hamster than will find one object you have lost in your lifetime and return it to you in one piece. What object would it be and when / how did you lose it?

My original wedding ring set. I got poison ivy once (the first time, the time I found myself to have a virulent allergy to poison ivy) and I was at work a few days later, and it was awful. It was all over my hands, and my rings were driving me nuts. So I took them off, put them in a baggie, and THOUGHT they went onto my purse. But I never saw them again. I get a nicer, fancier set later, but it just wasn't the same.

[Marmot]

Crust - thin crust, though deep dish can be good if it's done right.
Sauce - Standard tomato sauce, I have not tried making my own (with heirloom) tomatoes, but I'd love to try.
Cheese - Mozzerela. Provolone is also good. Goat cheese is too, though it's difficult to eat a lot with it because of the richness in flavor.
Toppings - Veggies! Onions (yellow or green, raw or grilled or caramelized), mushrooms, spinach, olives, fresh tomatoes, any kind of peppers, etc. I'm not a vegetarian by nature, but I am by habit.
