I use to make a lot of focaccia when living in the US but not so much now..... thanks for the reminder, yours looks fabulous by the way.<br /><br />Glad to hear Kris is OK. We really do need to treat ourselves kindly.

My Grandma on my dad's side is Irish and makes soda bread (or brown bread) often, and firmly believes you need to cut a cross into the top of the loaf, because otherwise it isn't right. Apparently this comes from her mother, saying it was to :let the devil out". Hurray for bread making!Danahttp://thefunkykitchen.comnoreply@blogger.com
