Slitting the gizzards of a plum tomato on your breakfast plate...see how the juices flood out...argharr jim me'lad
And even better, fried egg on toast...carefully eating all the eggwhite and toast on the outside till there's just the yolk stood on a yolk sized piece of toast. Finally...and best of all, slip that yolk and bit of toast on your fork, in the mouth, bite and let that flavour flood your mouth
.
It must be good....the wife complains like hell when i do it

Watching the sunset. From where I am sitting I can see purpley clouds in horizontal stripes across a pink sky. Looking further over to the right it is more bluey and yellow, as the sun sets behind the Malverns.

Making up a circuit or completing a circuit or something on the computer.
Just sorted out a few computer problems and sorted out the horn buttons on my bike.The wire kept becoming disconnected to the horn buttons so I did a modification.
Looking forward to the commute to try it out on the motons.

the smile Millie wears while eating a meal i've cooked well.
how great things are between us just for having escaped the city for a little bit
getting the foil off the hot chocolate / tube of pringles in one piece
the satisfaction of having put a bike together / back together correctly and smoothly

Another vote for clean cotton sheets after a shower.
A pint of fresh cool hand-pulled bitter in my local, served in a straight-sided glass.
Toasted crumpets with melted Président butter and Marmite.
Swooping down a grassy descent on the MTB, standing on the pedals and feeling the front forks soaking up the bumps.
Skiing a steep black run straight down the fall line with a pair of stiff skis that kick you back out of each turn.
Plumbing a bathroom, making up plastic waste pipes with glue and soldering copper pipes. A great excuse for some perfectionism for the sake of it; pointless because nobody will ever see it.
Rebuilding a bike, every component clean and perfectly adjusted and lubricated, torquing the nuts and bolts by hand feeling the elasticity of the materials and judging the tightness just perfect.

At the risk of appearing pretentious ('Moi?'), this brings to mind an incident in American philosopher Norman Malcolm's memoir of Wittgenstein, where their walk thru' a Cambridge quad is interrupted by Wittgenstein hauling him into the gents and making him stand up on the loo seat to look at how beautifully the cistern mechanism was made. "Wittgenstein," he says, "always had a keen appreciation of sound workmanship and a genuinely moral disapproval of the flimsy or slip-shod. He liked to think there might be craftsmen who would insist on doing their jobs to perfection, and for no other reason than that was the way it ought to be."Rigid Raider said:

Sounds like Wittgenstein was the inspiration for the Arts and Crafts movement and for individuals like Robert M Pirsig. He in turn inspires me to aim for quality in everything I undertake.
I do sometimes stoop to look under the basin when using a bathroom or public toilet, just to see how the plumber did the pipework.
