YUM
That looks amazing! Banana spring rolls sound yummy. We'll have to do some negotiations about your spice collection when you return, although I've cleared you out cumin and tumeric from last year's "winter of dahl".

It is a young slow loris
Bush babies live in Africa. By the way, slow lorises are protected by law and they also have very poisonous bites!!
