Do you love coffee?..I have been drinking coffee since I was a baby and have been making pots of coffee since I was a toddler lol...I remember when I was too small to be in school and too young to be able to tell time..I would be home with my Momma all day..she would say to me "wake me up to take my medicine when the jeffersons come on"..I would pull a chair up to the counter put the grounds in..run the water for the pot..make her a cup..make me one in my poodle head sippie cup..then proceed to wake up my Mother..ahh my wonderful memories that include coffee..I know many people believe that coffee is unhealthy...I don't think so...there are lots of healthy things about coffee in fact...just check out this webmd article http://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/features/coffee-new-health-food ..

I remember when coffee was made in a perculator and that was such a cool thing. It was a coffee pot with the filtering thing in it before that. So now we have coffee maker that even turn on by themselves now days. I think the aroma is wonderful. I just found a type of coffee that a friend of mine sells that has a nutrient in it that helps rid our bodies of toxins. I bought some and have it daily.

I am surprised that you started to drink coffee so early. When I was a child, my family gave me a little bit of coffee. I heard later they said I had a sleepwalking at that night. Coffee really works so much for me. This is why I don't often drink it because I am afraid to be sleepless at night. Even if it is just a cup of instant coffee, it will still make me full of energy.

I feel that no matter what we eat or drink there will be a time where people will say it is very bad for us.
I have drank coffee for many years and I am alright, other than a few health problems that coffee could not have caused.
If we were to listen to all the things that we are told were bad for us we would not hardly have anything left to eat or drink that was safe or healthy.

I am also a coffee lover. I also got this from my mom because she also loves coffee. When I was still single and still staying with her, we always stock coffee at home. In the morning, we will have coffee at breakfast. Then at around 10am, we break again and have a cup of coffee... Then at snack time, we will have coffee again. And sometimes, we also drink coffee for midnight snack. That is how addicted we are to coffee.
But now, since my husband is not really that fond of coffee (but he drinks coffee for breakfast also), I only have coffee 3 x a day... Breakfast, morning coffee break, and afternoon break. That is still lots of coffee a day.

yes you are right. some people doesn't want to drink coffee at night because they said they will have a hard time to go to sleep. It is not also an issue for me because even though I drink 2 mugs of coffee, I can still go through a sound sleep. Maybe because we are already immuned to the effects of caffeine

well you probably don't get sick much because of all those antioxidants you're getting from your coffee...now I do have other habits that many consider unhealthy like smoking..and I know it isn't good for me but it's something I enjoy so that is my sacrifice...when it comes to coffee I don't see any sacrifice except money..ok that's a sacrifice..but I will pay LOL
