New York, N.Y. As my birthday falls in the summer I was usually on Martha’s Vineyard with my mom for the occasion. She liked to take me out to celebrate for a lobster dinner. This became a tradition. Fast forward, and my mother has been gone for decades, but my partner Bix learns of this tradition and turns it into our own.
