Happy Hauschka New Year!

Well the dust is indeed settling round our way. And you guys seem to be enjoying what The Hopsack is up to. Indeed we’ve had some amazing accolades since we drew the curtains back to show off our shiny new healthy haven. “I’ve never been so happy to spend money in all my life” was one that took us all by surprise, feeling as we did that we had done a fair job of the new shop, but not to the point of really touching someone’s life/purse in such a positive manner. So we’re crimson cheeked with all the commentary, and for those of you who haven’t yet seen the new place, below is a selection of images that charts our path over the last couple of months as we swelled Violet Beauregarde-style (the girl who blew up into a giant blueberry at the behest of the umpa-lumpas) to become a centrepiece of fresh wholefoodiness in the distinctly patchy gastronomic tapestry that is Rathmines.

On another note, if your name is Tina Tina…you’re the lucky winner of our Dr Hauschka hamper competition!! We look forward to presenting you with your hardwon prize 🙂 And for the rest of you, the answer Tina provided us was 1million cells, to the question: how many skin cells does our body shed in 24 hours? If you haven’t signed up to our newsletter you won’t even have heard of this or indeed any other of our great offers. So just scroll down this page and stick your email address in the box on the right to start receiving our blogs and offers (usually about once every fortnight). 2012 is set to be a year of super offers/discounts/bundles and prizes at The Hopsack to keep a few extra coins in your pocket, and hopefully put a smile on your face.
