Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday festivity. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for children. 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 lighted for display. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one attempt customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday custom. The song was 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 cards started in The UK about
100 years ago. Originally cards were often mailed as an
"apology" when you couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we sometimes post 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
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the card even if its
belated.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
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 substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
