Thanks! Are you using dried tomatoes that come in olive oil? If so you may need to get some of the moisture out either by patting dry or letting them sit in flour first. When I use jalapeños in my bread I let them sit in flour for a few minutes before incorporating into the dough so they don’t make mushy spots.

When you use them on top, are you tenting your bread with foil at a certain point while it’s in the oven? That should help keep the top from burning.

Thanks!

I’ll be baking some later today so I’ll be sure to take a pic and post it!

It’s super easy, and makes some amazing sandwiches when it’s baked thick (I usually use a 9×9 pyrex dish). I’m not sure if it’s technically focaccia since it’s way thicker than a flatbread, but it’s delicious nonetheless!

Hopefully she’s willing to try it again, but if not that’s okay too. I could tell my wife was not that excited about it by the end of the first game, but we tend to play a new game at least twice back to back to help cement the rules which she was willing to do. Once she started making her own moves and suggesting what we could focus on next she started getting into it, and I was stoked when she wanted to play again the next day.

Throughout the work week I played at least one solo game each of:

• Hadrian’s Wall
• Rove
• Sprawlopolis
• Solar Storm
• Palm Island

My wife was finally ready to learn Spirit Island this past weekend and we played three games total. Somewhere during the second game on Saturday it started clicking for her and she started really enjoying it, and on Sunday she suggested that we play it again.

We usually play Carcassone, Azul, Sagrada, or Patchwork (which I love), but I’m happy that she enjoyed Spirit Island as much as she did and that we have a good coop game to play.

I baked some focaccia on Saturday with rosemary from our little garden (I like making it really thick though). I also baked a loaf this morning after it had been in the fridge overnight, and have the baking steel preheating right now for some sourdough pizza in a bit.
