I love homemade baking especially at the morning when you start your day with a bread baking smell at your kitchen with thyme and garlic, just try it and you’ll be so happy with these lovely mixed smell. Focaccia bread is so delicious and easy to make don’t be afraid to be generous with olive oil the more you add olive oil the more you’ll have a mushy bread.
