'Christmassy' is one of my favourite feelings (up there with pre-holiday excitement and when you're just the right amount of hungover to justify eating anything you want all day without it making you feel worse). I roll my eyes with everyone else when supermarkets start displaying their Christmas stock way back in September, but I'm secretly glad we get to start feeling Christmassy earlier and earlier each year.
That's why I always make a Christmas cake. They need to be made a month or so in advance to give the flavours time to intensify, which means I have a legitimate excuse to start getting into the Christmas spirit in early November without anyone rolling their eyes at me.

Peckham Burger
To give you all a break from being jealous of my holiday, I thought I'd shake things up a bit with a London-based post.
I love Southeast Asian food and we had some incredible local dishes while we were away, but one thing I was really looking forward to having when I got home was a big ol' juicy burger.

Our first stop was a little town called Sepilok, to see orangutans...
