Awonderful birthday party is often the best
gift of all. That is why this kind of occasion should
be casual in nature, need little advance preparation
and have simple decorations. The focus must be on
the person, not the party.
Add good cheer with bowls of pretzels and
crackers, fun drinks, bright flowers in vases, and
perhaps a few helium balloons anchored to chairs.
A luscious-looking birthday cake, complete with
candles, graces the center of the table.
All that is left to do is scoop out the ice cream.
