Patch Picture of the Week Contest

WINNER: Food Photo Contest

Readers have spent nearly a week uploading photos. We've crowned our winner.

We received nearly 90 entries to our photo contest this week, which asked readers to submit photos of their food. It wasn't easy to only choose one as the winner of our contest, which gives readers the chance to win a $25 gift card. After looking at all of the mouth-watering entries, we've chosen our winner: the pie submitted by Teri Christopherson. Congratulations, Teri! We will be contacting you to make arrangements for you to receive your prize. Thanks to all who entered! And, Merry Christmas!
