The Spiral Tower

I gathered a stack of round cork coasters on the granite kitchen counter, ready to construct an architectural triumph. Naturally, a master builder of my caliber couldn't settle for an ordinary pile! I nudged each coaster outward by an exact paw’s width, spiraling them upward into a sweeping miniature staircase. My plush paws adjusted the balance with absolute precision—not a single wobble in the entire column. For the grand finale, I hoisted a grooved wooden honey dipper and balanced it across the topmost step like a gleaming flagpole. It held rock-steady over the stone. Pure structural elegance... wouldn't you say?
