Birthday Candles
These candles are supposedly for Hamode's birthday cake.
Unfortunately, we forgot to give it when we were in the restaurant but the good thing is, they do have candles readied for such occasions.
Did you know that having birthday candles on the cakes are claimed to have originated from the Greeks?
They used to place candles on the cakes to light them up like the moon then they do offer these to Artemis - the Goddess of the moon.
Many of us makes a wish before blowing the lights on the candles and if we are able to blow the lights off all at the same time, our wish will come true.
So the next time that you'll blow off your birthday candles, try harder!
