How to Make a Birthday Wish

Everyone’s been there. The candles are aflame and you close your eyes to make a wish. By the time you’re done blowing out the candles, you’ve either forgotten what you wished for or you’ve given up hope that your wish will come true. Now you can make a wish that will always come true.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• cake
• candles

1. Smile as the birthday cake approaches your table and everyone starts singing.
2. Pretend to be surprised. Of course, it’s your birthday so there better have been cake, but no one likes to surprise a jaded, cynical person.
3. Wait for the cake to be placed in front of you.
4. Close your eyes.
5. Wish that you are able to open your eyes again.
6. Blow out the candles.
7. When your loved one asks you what you wished for, say very sweetly it’s already come true.

Tips & Warnings

• Don’t groan when half the restaurant sings along to “Happy Birthday” and they get your name wrong. They don’t know you. Lighten up.
• Don't tell anyone your wish. You want to avoid this wish not coming true.
