Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday party. A cake with lit candles
is not just for youngsters. It is customary 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 ten. The candles are all lighted for display. People make wishes when blowing
out the birthday candles. 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 interpretations over the years.
Sending
birthday greeting cards started in The UK about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we sometimes send birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has since become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming familiar. Not remembering a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the birthday card even if its
tardy.
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 classmates at school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
