This Thursday, the weather alone cannot take credit for the warm feeling you'll experience in Honolulu. For a donation of $95, the Halekulani will treat you to some of the best food on Oahu by three of the island's star chefs. (The evening's menu includes the Halekulani's deservedly famous coconut cake.) The For Japan fundraiser, organized by the hotel, is viewed as a sign of solidarity with a country near and dear to the people of Hawaii. One hundred percent of proceeds from this event will go to the statewide initiative "Aloha for Japan". The event runs from 6:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.
Three verifiable things about me. One. I am an only child. The concept of sharing, therefore, is foreign to me. Two. I am a Virgo. The sign regarded as a perfectionist. Three. My mother raised me to be meticulously clean; compulsively tidy. According to my mother, "You have taken this clean thing way too far." I disagree. Apologies to my mother.
Nature or nurture? Who knows? Who cares? I have not been diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Nor would I label myself a Cleanaholic. Or a Germaphobe. My world though, is definitely a unique place. One where doors open magically. Hotel mattresses are pristine. And estheticians never double dip.
I live in this world without a bubble or a honeycomb mask. About 15 years ago I got tired of catching the flu du jour and became ever more so hygienically vigilant -- perhaps obsessively so.
