Birthday
points of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday party. A birthday cake with candles
is not just for children. It is customary to place a
total of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the cake. Numeral candles are popular 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 effort 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 the
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions over the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in The UK about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often mailed as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we sometimes post birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has now become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming familiar. 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 family 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.
