Mai Adventures In Macarons! Part 1

Hello my food friends!, this is Kat the injured Confectionist. Yes, injured. Today I burned my left index finger an I prefer not to tell how, because I fear it is too embarrassing. So I am typing single-handedly and I am having a hard time with it.........Rats! I am also embarrassed about this batch too, because as you see this was a bad batch as the foot oozed out.......and here is why: I wanted to see how my Macarons were doing, and they had risen perfectly and had perfect 'feet'. So then I closed my oven and apparently I colsed it too hard that it 'disrupted' the baking and no sooner that I did I took them out and as seen in the picture above the feet oozed out. I am still yet to make an exact batch. Although this time it was my fault for 'disrupting them........ but if I wouldn't of done that the macarons would of been perfect, because as seen in online tutorials and tasting a pro's the batter was perfect, and they had the exact texture. So I will try again....and again. ( Sorry I have no pic of the stiffness of the meringue it wouldn't upload)
