What a lovely story! Sometimes grandmothers do that, giving coffee to babies, hahahahaha, but I understand why you love coffee so much; the imprint is something that's hard to leave behind.
It's great that, even with your lactose intolerance, you haven't stopped enjoying a good cup of coffee. I suppose you drink it until noon because then it keeps you awake. I used to be like that, but now I'm immune. I can drink coffee at these hours and it doesn't keep me awake. I think I've built up a resistance to that effect.
It's nice to see you back here.
Hugs and
Cheers!
