points of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday party. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for kids. It is customary to place a
total of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the birthday 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 the 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 relatively
new to birthday custom. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of any
birthday celebration. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various interpretations through out the years.
Sending
birthday cards started in Great Britain about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often posted as an
"apology" when you couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we frequently post birthday greeting 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 accepted. Not remembering a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the birthday card even if its
tardy.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and family members 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.
