Today is National Homemade Bread Day. It's a time to celebrate one of the basic skills of home and hearth. When you cook from scratch, you take care of yourself and the people you love. Bread is the food of life, sacred in many Pagan traditions. It lends itself well to spellcraft in the kitchen.
For this spell, you need to make a loaf of bread. Once the dough is in the loaf pan, decorate the top with a magical symbol, either cut with a knife or painted with melted butter. Runes, ogham, elemental signs, etc., will all work; choose whatever represents your goal. As you put the bread in the oven, say:

"Mixing the dough,
Kneading it out,
Speaking of love,
Without a doubt,
Watching it rise,
Baking the bread,
Magic's afoot
And spell is said."

The spell is activated when the bread is eaten.
