Python Build a Social Network with Flask Broadcasting Lunch order view

Build a Social Network with Flask-Stage 3: Add a new view at /today that shows the current user's lunch order for today.

I'm getting the error "Bummer! Try again!" when I run my code:

code for lunch.py

from flask import Flask, g, render_template, flash, redirect, url_for
from flask.ext.bcrypt import check_password_hash
from flask.ext.login import LoginManager, login_user, current_user, login_required, logout_user

import forms
import models

app = Flask(__name__)
app.secret_key = 'this is our super secret key. do not share it with anyone!'
login_manager = LoginManager()
login_manager.init_app(app)
login_manager.login_view = 'login'


@login_manager.user_loader
def load_user(userid):
    try:
        return models.User.select().where(
            models.User.id == int(userid)
        ).get()
    except models.DoesNotExist:
        return None


@app.before_request
def before_request():
    g.db = models.DATABASE
    g.db.connect()
    g.user = current_user


@app.after_request
def after_request(response):
    g.db.close()
    return response


@app.route('/register', methods=('GET', 'POST'))
def register():
    form = forms.SignUpInForm()
    if form.validate_on_submit():
        models.User.new(
            email=form.email.data,
            password=form.password.data
        )
        flash("Thanks for registering!") 
    return render_template('register.html', form=form)


@app.route('/login', methods=('GET', 'POST'))
def login():
    form = forms.SignUpInForm()
    if form.validate_on_submit():
        try:
            user = models.User.get(
                models.User.email == form.email.data
            )
            if check_password_hash(user.password, form.password.data):
                login_user(user)
                flash("You're now logged in!")
            else:
                flash("No user with that email/password combo")
        except models.DoesNotExist:
              flash("No user with that email/password combo")
    return render_template('register.html', form=form)

    return "I should only be visible to logged-in users"

@app.route('/logout')

    logout_user()
    return redirect(url_for('login'))

    return render_template('index.html')

def order_lunch():
    form = forms.LunchOrderForm()
    if form.validate_on_submit():
        models.LunchOrder.create(
            user=g.user._get_current_object(),
            date=form.date.data,
            order=form.order.data.strip()

            order=form.order.data.strip()
        )
    return render_template('today.html',form=form)    

code for templates/today.html

{% extends "layout.html" %}

{% block content %}
<h1>Your lunch for today</h1>

<p><!-- print today's lunch order --></p>
{% if current_user .is_authenticated() %}
<a href="{{ url_for('today') }}" class="view" > Today's order </a>
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}

Hi Bryan

for this challenge all you need to do is return the lunch order for the current logged in user.

@app.route('/today',methods=('GET','POST'))
@login_required
def today():
    order=models.LunchOrder.get(
            user=g.user._get_current_object()
        )
    return render_template('today.html')
