notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an essential
part of the birthday party. A 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 birthday cake. Numeral candles are popular when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lit for display. People make wishes when blowing
out the birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one breath customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday custom. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of any
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Sending
birthday greeting cards started in England about
100 years ago. Cards were often sent as an
"apology" when you couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we frequently mail birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has now become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming more familiar. 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 relatives would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include classmates at school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
