Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday festivity. A cake with candles
is not just for children. It is traditional to place a
number 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 lit for display. People make wishes when blowing
out my 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 relatively
new to birthday custom. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of the
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in The UK about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often sent off as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we often post birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has now become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming familiar. Forgetting a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the birthday card even if its
tardy.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and family members would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include schoolmates from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
