Default Failure

I've just finished baking a batch of Parisian-style macarons. I've made
them several times before with excellent results but today they were an
absolute mess.
The Italian meringue didn't "come together" properly and in the oven
they spread out into odd shapes and joined their neighbours rather than
rise with perfect "feet".
They are only fit for crumbling up and sprinkling on icecream.
I don't think I'll risk any more baking projects today, as I had planned
to make cookies and tarts.
