My husband gave me a white Sphinx fez with a bright red tassel for Christmas. I believe it was a sign that I should declare my intentions: I want to join FOM if FOM will have me! :D

Nice to meet you @tikiadjacent! Good to know there are other potential initiates out there like me. :) My husband and I rang in the New Year with daiquiris and Navy Grogs last night and it just so happens I wore my new fez. The dogs loved it, haha! See my avatar for a picture.

By the way, I couldn't figure out how to import the image to this message. Are there instructions somewhere?

WELCOME ABOARD! Glad to have you! The Fez looks great!

Me, I upload the image somewhere and put the URL between the IMG tags you can produce with the toolbar.

Thank you both!

We have a pretty active Ohana group in Northern California, especially in the Bay Area (where I'm from originally) and Sacramento (where I moved a few years ago). One of the things I like about FOM is that it's national, which helps me meet people outside my normal Ohana "bubble."

I'm afraid I'll have to play around with the image function. I tried with a Google link but it didn't seem to work. I'll figure it out...

I think that is a great idea! Do it! I'm still new on the Pot of the Initiate, but everyone I've interacted with from the Order is super friendly and has recipes for drinks.
