Until one Monday, in mid-March, 1999, the last 600 head of cattle would sell through the ring.  The last gavel fell that day, ending an era that put Omaha on the map as a hub of agriculture in the United States of America.  

For more than a decade Chicago had been the center of meat production in the northern great plains.   In 1955, Omaha's livestock market became the largest in the world, moving 6.7 million head that year and that would not even be the PEAK of sales receipts.  A few years later at the end of World War 2, they would move 7.7 million head.  

A few years ago, my daughter did her history project on the Omaha Stockyards. So I give her credit for these facts Im going to share this week!

I love to use mulberries in place of blueberries in muffins and banana bread and even making mulberry sauce for ice cream or cheesecake. But this past weekend my creativity ran wild when I found a recipe that I modified into Mulberry Cheesecake Cookies.  

A town festival, mulberries, and birthday candles that sums up our weekend! Thanks for starting your week with me here on Ranch Raised.
