Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an important
part of the birthday party. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for children. It is customary to place a
total of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the birthday cake. Numeral candles are popular when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lighted for presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one breath customarily brings good luck for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of any
birthday festivity. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Sending
birthday cards started in England about
a hundred years ago. Originally cards were often mailed as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we often post birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Forgetting a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the birthday card even if its
late.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and family would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include friends from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
