This week's fat joy is me at last week's Sequim Lavender Festival! It's one of the highlights of my year. We hit the festival at the fairgrounds, then go berry picking at one of the local farms that opens up for the weekend.
I was super cute in my Maya Kern/Serglesinner peony skirt and green top, too, but forgot to get a photo before I covered up the nice top to protect it and swapped the skirt out for leggings.

Fat joy can be loud and boisterous, or it can be quiet and peaceful.
We need every possible kind of joy -- not only because we deserve to experience joy, but because so much of our lives is constrained by systems and people who want us to shrink into tiny, sad, colorless existences.

Fat joy is contagious.
Fat joy is capturing your joyful fat friend get joyfully gay married, witnessed by a joyful crowd your friend has brought infinite joy to over the years.
Love you, Kristy.

Fat joy is precious, perfect and vital.
The world we live in encourages fat people not to feel joy, tells us we don't deserve it, tries to steal it away.
But joy is our birthright and something that can never be stolen from us entirely. Even in the midst of oppression, we can find and hold moments of joy.
