notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday celebration. A cake with 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 birthday cake. Numeral candles are accepted when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lighted for presentation. 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 comparatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of the
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various interpretations through out the years.
Posting
birthday greeting cards started in The UK about
100 years ago. Originally cards were often mailed as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we often send birthday 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 popular. Forgetting a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the card even if its
tardy.
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 at school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
