Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday party. A birthday cake with candles
is not just for youngsters. 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 10. The candles are all lit for display. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one attempt customarily brings good luck for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of any
birthday festivity. 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 mailed as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we frequently post birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has now become a multi-million
dollar business. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Forgetting a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the birthday card even if its
belated.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and family members would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include classmates from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
