The Family Table Restaurant at Home Again Farms
By Steve Stevens
As we are celebrating Thanksgiving this month, I wanted to share with you a very special restaurant that honors the tradition of sharing a blessed meal with dear family and friends. Is there anything that says and feels like home more than sitting down at the dinner table to eat a warm meal surrounded by our loved ones? I know we don’t do it as much as we should, but sitting down at the dinner table, not playing with our iPhones or listening to the television in the background, this is something that is celebrated in every country around the world. It gives us time to reflect, a time to say Grace and to visit with each other without any distractions, to talk about school, the Dallas Cowboys and faith. So anyone who inspires this grounded tradition, I am a full supporter of.
The Family Table Restaurant at Home Again Farms on Highway 180, a few miles west of Weatherford has a wonderful concept. They have a menu centered around Miss April’s wonderful casseroles. They have a buffet style lunch that is served from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday.
When I went inside, the little restaurant was filled with locals waiting to pick their choice of hamburger or King Ranch casserole, creamed corn or green beans and choice of peach cobbler or sopapilla cheesecake. They had a choice of different teas and even a choice of handmade sodas. Nothing says Texas like King Ranch casserole.

Seems lately these days Texas is becoming the envy of musicians from around the world.
With the overwhelming response to “Yellowstone,” the television series, Texas once again finds itself under the microscope of the world, much like the late 1980’s TV series know to all around the globe as “Dallas.”
With that said, the musician population in Texas is beginning to grow as many aspiring performers turn their sights on Texas instead of Nashville. Meet my newly-found friend and fellow musician Grace Partridge. This youthful 19 year old has recently made Texas her new home. She began fiddling at age four in Rigby, Idaho. Grace worked her way through the National Fiddle championships in Weiser, Idaho, becoming a five-time national champion. She’s even played on the Grand Ole Opry. Still yet, her desire to become a true Texas Fiddler has brought her to the Lone Star State. I’m pretty sure we can thank Bob Wills for that.
