Okay - first I have to say that I really love all the details of the 
series.  It is the detail that makes these books so brilliant.  I had 
to think about which details in particular really stood out in my 
mind, and here is what I came up with:

SS:  "He (Uncle Vernon) liked to complain about things: people at 
work, Harry, the council, Harry, the bank, and Harry were just a few 
of his favorite subjects."

GoF:  Dumbledore: "I am *not* joking, Mr. Weasley", he said, "though 
now that you mention it, I did hear an excellent one over the summer 
aout a troll, a hag, and a leprechaun who all go into a bar..."
     Professor McGonagall cleared her throat loudly.

Also in GoF, but I can't find the exact quote:  Neville's aim is so 
poor he keeps sending Professor Flitwick flying across the room.

There are so many others, and I agree with Catherine that everything 
about the Burrow is just perfect.
