Kit Kats are the business for nibbling, Kit Kat Chunkies especially - there are so many parts to get off! Brilliant. Purple snacks are geat too, leave yourself with the biscuit, break them apart to scrape off the middle bit and then nom. Takes me ages to eat those kinds of bars then though

Do you get Coffee Crisp bars in Ireland? Those are great for nibbling. Even better then Kit Kats or O'Henrys.

I've never heard of an O'Henrys. We have Toffee Crisp, is that what you meant or is this a coffee flavoured thing?

Anyone ever get a solid choc finger of Kit Kat? Life changing stuff .

It's not coffee flavoured. It is a solid piece of nougat/caramel, covered in peanuts and then covered in chocolate.

It's the dream combination of caramel, rice crispies and chocolate.

I think so too, another Nestle bar, but in navy packaging who's name I cannot summon up....

Nestle Crunch. I was thinking of a Hershey's Krackel bar.

Ah, yes. Similar, but no caramel if I remember correctly, just crispies in chocolate. It's the caramel that makes a toffee crisp, especially if chilled in the fridge for a few hours.

Sounds delish. Definitely on my bucket list.

The feeling of handing in a report/assignment etc. Getting all your work done and dusted, especially horrible tasks. Great feeling.

It's making me happy how outraged certain Russian politicians are at a drag queen winning Eurovision!

When you see someone driving like a lunatic pass by a speed camera. Very satisfying.

Health results clear. Not that trivial, but makes me very happy.

Boards.ie moderators winning an argument in a thread to moan about something not going according to the OP's self satisfying way. A bonus if the thread is'nt locked or closed so it's plain that the thread OP has no argument left to offer.

Someone else doing the housework. The other night I was exhausted and my husband did the dishes, cleaned out the cat litter box and handed me a gin and tonic. Sheer bliss:)

Receiving Post.

I have no idea why, but when I lift up the curtain behind the front door, if there is post I get butterflies in my tummy with the excitement. If I'm upstairs and my OH says to me 'there is post here for you' I run downstairs all excited :-)

I'm a little strange I think.

When you've been eating chips or something salty and you take that first swig of cold Coke.

That first glass of chilled dry white wine on a hot summer's evening.

The smell of freshly washed clothes.

Being able to apply the exact same amount of liquid eyeliner to both eyes and doing the flick thing at the corners and THEY BOTH MATCH!

Coming home from shopping and having full cupboards of treats and things.

That first cup of tea you have when you come home...the second cup never tastes the same.

The first slice of toast in the morning...the second slice never tastes the same.

Swallowing tea after you've eaten some chocolate.
