Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an essential
part of the birthday festivity. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for youngsters. It is customary 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 10. The candles are all lit for presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one attempt 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 integral part of the
birthday festivity. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various interpretations through out the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in England about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often mailed as an
"apology" when you couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we sometimes mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has now become a multi-million
dollar business. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Forgetting a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the card even if its
late.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and relatives 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.
