they’re always helpful. If you want to give an
original gift, however, we have selections that are
both practical and unique. Consider a hand blown glass teapot, or a gourmet
gift i.e. condiments oil and vinegar set, either

Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an essential
part of the birthday celebration. A birthday cake with candles
is not just for kids. 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 presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one attempt customarily brings good luck for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of the
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various interpretations over the years.
Posting
birthday greeting cards started in Great Britain about
100 years ago. Originally cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we frequently post birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has now become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming more familiar. Not remembering a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the birthday card even if its
belated.
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 friends from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
