Wrote an Alexa bot today to tell the kids what's for lunch at school, so I don't have to click through the school calendar app every morning: "Alexa, ask Papio Menu what's for lunch today" "Alexa, ask Papio Menu what is for lunch tomorrow"Permalink On twitter.com

Works great in dev testing. Submitted for Amazon approval. Fingers crossed that it works from the kids voices on the real alexa github.com/jeffsheets/alexa-papio-lunch-menuPermalink On twitter.com

Definitely the slowest part of publishing to @alexa99 is waiting for approval, especially since this skill app was built for elementary age kids... still waiting...On twitter.com

Ah man, of course, they finally got around to certification testing it - the day before spring break. Which meant there's nothing for lunch next week on the calendar, so it "failed". Now I get to handle that side-case and resubmit (hopefully not waiting another month!)Permalink On twitter.com
