My ice cube tray left a perfect spiral pattern on the kitchen counter last Tuesday

I set a half-full silicone ice cube tray down on the damp counter for maybe 10 minutes while I unpacked groceries. When I moved it, there was this gorgeous spiral of condensation rings that looked like a galaxy painting. The light hit it just right from the window and I swear it could hang in a gallery. Has anyone else caught weird water marks making something cool by accident?

That moisture had to be sitting pretty still and the surface really clean for it to stay sharp without smearing.

Haha oh man that's BEAUTIFUL. I love when the universe just decides to drop a little art on your counter for free. @the_mia is absolutely right about the clean surface and still moisture thing. I had a cold soda can do something similar on my nightstand once but it looked more like a sad puddle than a spiral galaxy. Your ice cube tray is clearly a secret artist.
