A Year of Late Cornish Day 226

This is practice reading for Cornish learners. Try to understand it before you lookat the translation. 

I haven't missed a day so far, since January 2nd but my daily blog seems difficult to find, so I am repeating it on this blog. For previous days click this link:

What to eat? That is the question. I will not eat meat any more. I don’t want to have anything from animals – neither meat, nor fish, nor shellfish, nor cheese, nor milk, nor eggs. Have I forgotten anything? I am no longer going to eat butter on my toast. For breakfast I ate cereal with almond “milk”. For lunch I had a bean burger with lots of vegetables. And what for supper? I tried mock duck. (In Alice in Wonderland there is a Mock Turtle.) Now I have indigestion. I won’t try that again.
