I'm confused by how you reference the data elements, can anyone help?

{% extends "layout.html" %}
{% block content %}
<h1>Your lunch for today</h1>
<h2><!-- today's date -->{{ order.date.strftime('%Y-%m-%d') }}</h2>
<p>{{ order.order }}</p>
<!-- button to the route for cancel_order with order_id=order.id -->
{% endblock %}
The today() function in lunch.py selects today's order from the LunchOrder model and assigns it to 'order' which is then passed to 'today.html'. You then just have to reference the 'order' and 'date' elements within 'order'.
