The Sims 1, Making Magic. That EP truly was...well, magical. The magic system they threw together im Sims 2 didn't even come close to the sheer variety, complexity, or whimsy of that EP. Adults and kids had separate spellbooks with different spells. You got I'm trouble for casting your spells in front of non-Magical Sims. Some of the ingredients for spells were really hard to obtain, and you had to either trade for them or do quests. And there was a while second money system. Some ingredients could only be bought with special magic coins, not simoleans.
And then there was the amusement park theme, with some items having more of a circus feel and others having a horror house feel. And there were roller coaster rides you could send your Sims on!
You also got a new baking ability in this EP, where there hadn't been one previously. There was a special recipe book for baked goods and nectars. And new objects to make some of the necessary ingredients, like churn butter or or press nectar. I think there was even a way to get or make your own honey...
*sigh* The nostalgia is real. It's been my favorite expansion ever since it came out, and as excites as I was for things like seasons in Sims 2, nothing has ever yet managed to top the sheer wonder ans hours upon hours of fun I had with Makin' Magic.
