Gastronomic favors for birthdays
Celebrating the date of one's birth or that of one's loved ones has ancient origins, but the birthday as we celebrate it today has a precise genesis and that is when in 1802 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe wanted to celebrate his fifty-third birthday. The modern practice of celebrating birthdays with greetings, cakes with candles, gifts and parties had a turning point in the aristocratic and bourgeois circles of the 19th century and then spread to the more popular circles before the 20th century. The western tradition is to blow out the candles and it is always preceded by making a wish from the birthday boy. Another custom is to give gifts to the birthday boy who, in addition to the cake with candles, organizes a little party with refreshments. But there are birthdays that are more important than others, which mark important milestones in one's life. The 18 years, today we would say "eighteenth", which represents the entrance into the "adult age", where one finally becomes an adult and holder of all rights, not least that of voting; or the 50 years that mark an intermediate moment and reflection on one's life. On these occasions special celebrations are organized and leaving a memory to the guests and to oneself becomes necessary. A commemorative wedding favor with a note with a special thought is now a tradition. Olioevo.eu gastronomic wedding favors are an original and welcome idea.
