It is no secret that I love the TV show Castle and I have also enjoyed the Castle novels that are “written” by the Richard Castle character. The novels are the ones that he is writing in the show featuring Nikki Heat, a character based on police detective Kate Becket— his partner in crime, and we hope eventually in much more.

What if that series of fantasy books we all read when we were younger turned out to be true? What if there really was magic to learn and schools where you could learn it, and a magical land that was real…and not as nice as the books would have us believe?

Soon the house will awaken and I will start making noise. My tea and honey have been quiet and my morning reading virtually silent. I get loud when I start stirring around the kitchen. I have choices, many of them. I can have whole grain pancakes, rice cakes, something with corn meal, oats with fruit and nuts, or maybe something on the skillet.

An escaped convict, who is a former cop in jail for stealing a famous diamond, ends up out on a ledge at a hotel. A police psychologist (Elizabeth Banks) works to try and talk him down, unaware at first who he is as he registered at the hotel under an alias. The psychologist has her own story as well–she’s been in a downward spiral after failing to keep a cop from jumping off a bridge and she’s surprised when the man on a ledge asks for her by name. At the same time that he is on the ledge, across the street a major diamond heist is in progress.

We receive e-mails from time to time from adopters who like to give helpful advice to our foster families. Just recently we received an e-mail advising one of our foster moms not to allow puppies to kiss her face, according to our adoptive mom; it is a terribly disturbing behavior when it is carried forward into their permanent home. A while back, a foster mom was chastised for not teaching her foster kitty to forego the very problematic habit of counter surfing. Obviously, the foster mom lacked discipline as this very curious kitty was jumping on the kitchen counters in her new home.

Main Street
This shopping district bills itself as “a world away from the ordinary, a block away from the beach.” It’s about a mile long walk from Pico Boulevard south to Navy Street.
