Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday festivity. A birthday cake with candles
is not just for youngsters. It is traditional to place a
total of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the 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. Blowing all the candles out
in one effort customarily brings good fortune 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 inherent part of the
birthday party. Numerous singers have also recorded
various interpretations through out the years.
Mailing
birthday greeting cards started in The UK about
one hundred years ago. Cards were often sent as an
"apology" when you couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we sometimes post birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has now 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
late.
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 at school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
