Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday festivity. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for children. It is traditional 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 effort customarily brings good fortune 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 any
birthday festivity. Numerous singers have also recorded
various interpretations over the years.
Posting
birthday greeting cards started in England about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often sent as an
"apology" when you couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we often mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has since become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming popular. Forgetting a birthday
on time 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 classmates from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
