I used a new toothbrush this morning. My teeth still feel squeaky clean. Love it.

Clean teeth are always one of life's delights -especially when you wake up hungover with a mouth like the bottom of a hamster's cage.

The first mouthfuls of a lovely hot cup of tea when you come home from a shite day at work and finally get to sit on the comfy sofa....

Yes, that's an absolute delight. I find if I make my tea and get the clothes on the washing line, by the time I come in it's perfectly brewed and just the right temperature. And the washing is on the line!

Getting into a freshly made-up bed.

When it's chilly at night and I get into my bed with the heated sheets on, just love it!

Biscuit tin empty. Get new packet from the cupboard. Open it, the first one gets broken. Take a whole biscuit, oh no what about the broken one. Better eat it. Tidier that way plus it’s my tax on refilling the biscuit tin!

A pair of brand new socks at the start of autumn.

When you're in for the rest of the afternoon/evening on a Sunday and the heating is on.

Mypetrabbit · 29/09/2024 14:39

@DAndreBarksdale omg yes !

Going for a run when it's cold outside and raining and then getting into a nice warm shower.

Oh yes!

And it reminds me, the smell of cold off the kids when they come in from playing on a cold day. Delish.

A glass of sherry with my husband on a Sunday afternoon.

Today's tiny delight was golden syrup cake and custard (bought for tonight's dessert) as a mid afternoon snack just cos it was chilly and we all wanted something warm and comforting Smile

A warm cat curled up on your lap. With book and tea in reach.

Tapping the washing line after it's been raining to create a curtain of water drops to fall off.

Hot coffee outside on a cool but sunny Autumn Day

I bought a linen dress on sale from M&S for £14 ( was £50). It was sold out completely but I managed to get one in my size.

Friendofdennis · 29/09/2024 17:15

Snoozing on a Sunday afternoon in my lovely bed

Anklesprainssuck · 29/09/2024 17:18

A whole bowl of Angel Delight…

When a random friendly dog wanders over for a fuss. My children are dog magnets.

Cherriezjubilee · 29/09/2024 17:22

When you wake at night with a dry thirsty mouth and think you have to go downstairs to get a drink. Then you find a bottle of Diet Coke by your bed...

I'm just purchased a new calendar that starts from September that has columns for each person. I feel so organised now I love it!!!

johnworf · 29/09/2024 17:54

My two dogs curled up against my feet at the bottom of the bed...keeping me warm. (not great in summer but lovely this time of the year).

A lovely long hot shower after having done a good clean of the house of a weekend morning-vaccuming/dusting- the jobs that make you feel a bit grimy. Bliss to wash it all away and know all that’s left to do after is make a cuppa😁
