Much the same as others have stated, a liking for particular knives and spoons. Bone china cup for tea, a fairly smallish cup for coffee and it has to be the right strength. My particular hate when buying coffee out would be an enormous cup that could double up for soup coffee is not about the quantity it's about the quality as any Italian will tell you
Other than that, I like to throw the duvet back, once up, to air the bed, apparently millions of those microscopic beings that the eye can't see, but inhabit our beds, die from cold when that's done. I never forget many years ago in Switzerland, I saw duvets, before they became common place over here, hanging out of windows or over balconies clearly a nation of advanced airers! Although the bed has to be made again after a while, I hate un made beds.
In the kitchen I don't like debris left around, although I'm lucky as I do all the cooking my husband does all the clearing up so it's usually ship shape by the time I start again.
