What little things in life that cost very little or even nothing at all makes it one of your life's little pleasures?

I will start the ball rolling by saying that during a hot stuffy night it's when you turn your pillow over and then rest your head on the now deliciously cool side.
Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    That first day of spring, when the weather has turned just warm enough to not to need to done a jacket when taking the trash.

    You don't have to turn over the pillow if you don't vomit on it :D

    The simple joy of looking in a mirror, or any reflective surface. :)

    Enjoying a cup of coffee and reading a book in the mornings, between breakfast and going off to work.

    Enjoying a breath of fresh air in the morning from the open door and hearing the birds singing.
    And then I discover those mole hills again B-)

    Well in the old days it used to be just switching on Ceefax and finding that a nuclear missile was not in fact headed our way. Only then did I feel safe to make breakfast. :D

    Rising early on a Saturday morning and cooking the sausages, eggs, toast etc while listening to the radio. Setting the table. Then calling the wife and whatever kids/grandkids are around down for breakfast.

    To be honest, there's nothing like an early morning crap.

    He'd probably say, "Is that a reference to his posts here?" :))

    Of course he would. He's so dumb he'd never even consider that they aren't even molehills :v His association skills are not great. In fact he has no skills, except in annoying, in that he excels.

    Making a batch of your own ale, which will cost a fraction of the bottle shop price and taste heaps better. And there will be nothing better to drink straight from the fridge on a hot February/March night!

    DN or TLD on Blu Ray, a fine ale, and a manicotti dinner.

    Sunday morning is English breakfast time for us - Frank Cooper's Oxford Marmalade = bliss!

    I enjoy a Sunday morning breakfast. Sat at the table before anyone else is up, listening to some decent music, drinking coffee. If only every day was Sunday...

    I do like a mug of hot chocolate sometimes, with a Bond film obviously.
    Have you ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?"

    I recently watched a tv show starring my favourite chef Mr Rick Stein , in the opening credits ,there is a shot of Rick sitting on a rock in lands end eating a Cornish pasty ,well ive sat near that very spot ,and like Rick ,stuufed my face ,with one of Cornwalls treasures
    a piping hot tiddy oggy . This was a 2 handed job,it was big ,but my wife and I ,sat there basking in the Cornish sunshine ,watching the Atlantic roll in from the Americas ,getting slowly sandpapered on our faces from the sea air blowing in from the west . This would go down as one of my lifes little pleasures .
