Did anyone notice the candles on Bertie Mae's cake were 85 but it was her 84th birthday?

First of all ... wow that you took the time and effort to count them all. :)
Second of all ... wow that they managed to get that many candles on the cake and lit them all.
Third ... We always put an extra candle on the cake "for good luck," so maybe that was what they were doing too.

Maybe they couldn't find the four and five was the closest number they had available.
