Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an essential
part of the birthday celebration. A cake with candles
is not just for youngsters. It is traditional 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 10. The candles are all lighted for display. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one breath 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 party. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renderings through out the years.
Posting
birthday cards started in Great Britain about
100 years ago. Cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we frequently mail birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting 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
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the birthday card even if its
belated.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and relatives would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include schoolmates from school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
