Today was a little bit of a different type of hack. Needed to come up with something for dinner based on what we had around. I ended up putting together chicken pasta salad w/ apple and walnut. Didn't use a recipe, just added ingredients that I thought would work and it came out pretty good.

Here are the ingredients used:

Mix the chicken, apples, walnuts and pasta in a large bowl. Add the oregano and garlic powder, mix thoroughly. Add mayo then salt and pepper to taste. It's best if you can let the pasta salad sit covered in the fridge for 30-60 minutes but you can eat it right away.

Now to actual updates you maybe interested in.

At the end of my print yesterday, the program froze multiple times and it required me to pause and restart. Today I printed this bottle opener to see if I could replicate the issue and it did freeze 2-3 times. Some Internet searching seemed to net several possibilities. The last two prints I have been running directly from my computer. Several online solutions seem to indicate I should be only running from the SD chip and not to have it connected to the computer. Let's hope that work.
