Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday party. A 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 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 on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one breath customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday custom. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of any
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renderings over the years.
Posting
birthday cards started in England about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often mailed as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we frequently mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has now become a multi-million
dollar business. 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
late.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and family members would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include schoolmates at school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
