Blowing out candles on a birthday cake is the same tradition down here as in Canada, but the candles are different! I’ve seen this several times, but this is the first time I remembered to catch it on video.

It was Cecilia’s son Joaquin’s birthday last weekend, and we had a lunch for him on Sunday at Cecilia’s house. So this is the birthday candle ceremony, Argentine style — although it’s not always with dogs!
