Birthday
points of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday festivity. A 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 birthday cake. Numeral candles are popular when the number
of candles exceed 10. The candles are all lighted for presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. 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 custom. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of the
birthday celebration. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in The UK about
100 years ago. Cards were often sent off as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we frequently mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming popular. Not remembering a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the card even if its
late.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and relatives would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include schoolmates from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
