The Herb Quarterly Magazine has apparently ceased production

-
It has come to my attention that The Herb Quarterly magazine has apparently ceased production. I realized that the last issue of the magazine that I had received was the Spring 2022 issue, pictured above. I had already paid my subscription thru Spring 2023. 
I have sent two emails to the customer service email address printed in that issue, and have received no response, as well as sending an instant message on Facebook Messenger. I have called all three 209 area code phone numbers listed in print in the magazine, and all of them are not in service. Their website also says it is down for maintenance right now, with no indication of when it will be back up.
I truly had enjoyed getting the magazine every quarter. It is truly a shame that they didn't feel obligated to tell their subscribers that they were ceasing production. Nor have they offered any refunds for unpublished issues. The least they could have done was be honest.

Making Spiced Sugar

-
 Yesterday I made my own version of spiced sugar. I started with one cup of white sugar; the spices were added to suit my own taste. To the sugar, I added the following ground spices: cinnamon, cloves, cardamon, nutmeg, allspice, and ginger. I stirred them until they were thoroughly mixed, and sealed them in a glass jar. They will be wonderful for cooking/baking with, as well as to add to a cup of warm black tea. Enjoy!

This Afternoon

Between 230 and 300 this afternoon, Ellie and I were taking a walk in the front yard, and we noticed a woman approaching. She was walking along the Old Thomasville Rd., coming from town(Thomasville). She staggered out into one lane of the road, and a charcoal grey SUV honked its horn at her to move out of the road.  She stood in Penny Road for a few minutes and looked at me and Ellie, then started moving towards us. She had a small black backpack, and another black drawstring bag that looked like the kind you might carry a water bottle in. She was white, with blonde hair, and had on red shorts and a white shirt. I estimated that she was around my age(58), plus or minus 5 years.  She appeared to be either inebriated or high. She called "Hey, Lady", to me as she moved toward Ellie and me. I was at the same time moving towards the house with Ellie. She asked about what breed of dog Ellie was, and told me that she'd had a Chihuahua once. Part of the time, she shielded her eye

Wednesday with Camille

 This morning, I finished the final cooking of a batch of mixed citrus perl that I am making into candied fruit peel. once it cooled, I drained the sugar syrup liquid off and put it into a container. It is wonderful for flavoring teas and cocktails, as we!! As sparking water. Then I placed the peel on a tray covered in wax paper to dry, and covered it with granulated sugar.  Around 11:30 this morning, I started cooking some homemade Cuban black bean soup. I had soaked the dried beans in water overnight in preparation.  I spent this rainy day inside, enjoying the company of my animal family: my terrier dog, Ellie, and my two birds, my grey cockatiel, Ric, and my blue crowned conure, Earl. Such pleasant time! For dessert tonight, I made lemon pudding with fresh blueberries and banana in it, rimmed with miniature vanilla wafers. I used the banana peel from the banana to start some banana water, which is very good for green houseplants. I made an interesting gin and tonic with some of the
