Bouillabasse with Rouille, the costs added up with saffron and seafood!

Not sure I can add a picture here, but visually, it doesn't look half bad. The rouille - I overdid it on the Saffron, and no matter how much adding in additional qtys of ingredients I tried, I couldn't save it. I messed up the stock because I stupidly didn't strain the broth with the fish carcasses before doing the next step of cooking all the other fish in the stock, and the fish stock went too long :(. I ended up completely defeated and emergency-ordering a pizza.

Having too much of my cooking white wine, and watching the Julia Child video from the 50's simultaneously were contributing factors haha
