Spilled coffee on a napkin and it looked like a tiny mountain range

Last Tuesday at the diner on Route 9, I knocked over my mug and the stain spread across this paper napkin in these little ridges and peaks, real sharp like a topographic map. I stared at it for like five minutes before my eggs got cold, and then I took a photo because it honestly looked like something you'd frame. The waitress laughed and said she sees shapes in pancakes all day, but this one felt different. Has anyone else ever caught a food stain or spill doing something weird like that, or am I just seeing things?

real sharp like a topographic map" is exactly what gets me. I once had a ketchup blob on a drive-thru bag that looked like the state of Texas, and I showed it to my buddy like it was a sign from above. He didn't care at all. But then last month I dropped a spoonful of soup on my counter and it dried into this perfect spiral, almost like a galaxy. I left it there for a week just because it was cool to look at, and my wife finally wiped it off and called me a weirdo. So no, you're not seeing things, some spills just hit different.
