Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an important
part of the birthday festivity. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for kids. It is customary to place a
number of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the cake. Numeral candles are accepted when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lighted for display. People make wishes when blowing
out the birthday candles on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one effort customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of any
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions over the years.
Sending
birthday greeting cards started in Great Britain about
one hundred years ago. Cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we frequently send birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming familiar. Forgetting a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the birthday card even if its
late.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and family would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include friends from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
