It91裸聊视频檚 not snappy, shiny or modern. The green linoleum tiles on the floor look worn, the stencilled ivy on the wallpaper dates itself, and you won91裸聊视频檛 find any quinoa or kale listed on the menu board adorning the wall above the sink.

But the tall stools that line the counter of the little restaurant inside the Matchbox Smoke & Newsstand have been, over the years, a second home for many people.

That is changing.

The Matchbox on Hudson Avenue is on the move to Centenoka Mall to the former home of Lucky91裸聊视频檚, where owner Wes Piggott is continuing to sell lottery tickets, greeting cards, tobacco supplies and e-cigarettes.

Piggott doesn91裸聊视频檛 want to talk publicly about the move, but confirms it should be complete in the next week or so.

While 23-year-old Frances Biggs has been the chef, server and right-hand woman at the Matchbox for the past four years, the history of the store is interwoven with that of her family. Both her mom Donna and her great-aunt Pat worked for Tom Hale, the previous owner, when magazines were in their heyday and e-cigarettes were just a glimmer in an inventor91裸聊视频檚 eye. Her older sister Tiffany worked there too.

91裸聊视频淎 lot of these people have known me since birth,91裸聊视频� Frances said of her customers last week, before taking up her duties in the store91裸聊视频檚 new location. 91裸聊视频淢y mom had me when she was working here.91裸聊视频�

Every morning before Frances would start work, she would stop by Askew91裸聊视频檚 Foods to pick up the fresh produce she91裸聊视频檇 need for the day91裸聊视频檚 cooking.

She becomes particularly animated when she speaks about the soup.

91裸聊视频淚 make the soups from scratch each day,91裸聊视频� she said, explaining customers have been asking for her recipes since learning the store is moving.

Frances says she91裸聊视频檚 both saddened and excited by the move.

On this Friday, as most Fridays, the soups were clam chowder or tomato.

91裸聊视频淔riday, people order grilled cheese and tomato soup. It91裸聊视频檚 an old-school combination.91裸聊视频�

The Matchbox would see different crowds of people depending on the time of day.

Some old-school, some not.

People from surrounding businesses regularly come for lunch, while the morning crowd is a decidedly different gang. Ken Tapp, who is sitting on his usual stool facing the Keno screen, explains he91裸聊视频檚 been coming to the Matchbox since 1990, more regularly since 1997.

91裸聊视频淚 think I91裸聊视频檝e survived at least four people who91裸聊视频檝e passed away, and they91裸聊视频檝e all been regulars here. I91裸聊视频檝e ended up visiting them at Bastion, or taking them papers at home.91裸聊视频�

Frances describes the morning crowd, of which Tapp is a part, as 91裸聊视频渞ambunctious.91裸聊视频�

Former owner Tom Hale, Tapp recounts, had his own view of the spot where Tapp and friends sit.

91裸聊视频淗e used to say that the total IQ at the table had never exceeded 142 in all the years he91裸聊视频檇 operated the place.91裸聊视频�

Michael Ellis sits down next to Tapp. Asked why he comes to the Matchbox, Ellis quips, 91裸聊视频淪ex.91裸聊视频� He quickly follows that up with: 91裸聊视频淲ell, to look at Frances.91裸聊视频� Then, 91裸聊视频淲e come here for the good soup. Especially the soup. And we get regularly abused by the owner, Wes. Sometimes he gets brutal and Frances steps in.91裸聊视频�

Frances, meanwhile, holding her hands over her ears by way of demonstration, says she has become very skilled at not listening to what the morning crowd has to say.

Joking aside for the moment, Tapp says a lot of people come to the restaurant at the Matchbox for the ambiance.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 an old-time prairie restaurant. If someone is looking for me, they will come in at nine o91裸聊视频檆lock and be very surprised if I91裸聊视频檓 not here.91裸聊视频�

And what will he do now?

91裸聊视频淚91裸聊视频檒l have to go along (to the new location). I91裸聊视频檓 writing a book and staff figure prominently in it,91裸聊视频� he says, glancing with a grin at Frances.

91裸聊视频淥h, that look from Frances will kill a hamster at 30 paces,91裸聊视频� he says. 91裸聊视频淭hose are dark looks.91裸聊视频�
