Fun Roller Derby Stuffs from the Internet!

Is your league having a Bake Sale? Are you having a Garage Sale and want to add a treats table to it?
Is there derby girls with bdays that need a treat? I came across some sites that offer roller skating cookie cutters.  These would be awesome to have to sell cookies at bouts, bake sales, garage sales, fundraisers.


This one looks like the riedel-type roller derby skate.  It is available from Kitchen Collectibles for 12.95.  They would be super fun to decorate and I'm sure if someone else other then me baked them they would be very yummy.









This next one is more the old school roller skate boot. Super cute and retro. 
It is available through Copper Gifts for 12.95 US.
I'm sure you could make your skate look better then this one.  And if you need a cookie of a lady with a big nose and a bump on her head, then you can flip it around and do that. Ha, there are examples on the website.





      Here is another higher boot, big wheeled roller skate.  Because its an aluminum cutter it is super cheap at .76 cents. regularly 6.50.  It is available from Outdoor Gear Site.  At that price you could get one for the each girl in the league and go into high powered production.







Tired of cookies? How about some chocolate skates on a stick? MMMMMM this is available from the UK for 3.95.  Check out Cakes, Cookies and Crafts to purchase.

If you don't want to purchase any roller skate cutters but still wanna make a roller skate cookie apparently you can take an upside down/backwards "L" cookie cutter and then add two circles of dough at the bottom.  Other options would be a circle and make a wheel.  Jammer Stars. etc.

I will not be partaking in any of these however because my baking, cooking, making anything passed a peanut butter sandwich or chopping vegetables is beyond me.
I leave all the yumminess up to my friend and fellow derby girl Dawn Kashane.  She makes  me the yummiest food and keeps me work in it off on the track!

Mmmmm now I'm super hungry for yummy treats! hint hint DK i know your reading this!

Super Sweet makes their debut in Montreal



We made up a team of skaters called Team Super Sweet, more on the actual team in a later post, but, our first game and really our first time skating together was against one of the best teams in Canada.  We travelled down to Montreal, to take on Les Filles du Roi.  We drank meters of beer, tried on ridiculous shoes, swam in a roof top pool, and got schooled, yet again by Les Filles in a 214-66, i think, finish.
It was a great weekend and we would totally do it again!
You can see some great pics here by Tristan Brand – Freelance Photographer






This was the meter of beer. I think they called it 3 liters but a meter sounds so much better! It was a great end to a long drive.  We stumbled back to our hotel after and promptly went to sleep.









These were the shoes Mirambo was in love with! When we told her to go and try them on, we didn't realize that they were 700 dollars or that they would have to go in the vault to get her size. Ha ha. 




Roof Top POOL!! So happy it was a nice weekend so we could swim in it!

It was a great weekend and I can't wait to play with the Super Sweet ladies again, hopefully really soon!

One week until beast!

So while Sufferjet is at home, printing up some more hotpants and whipping up some new uniforms for The  Thames Fatales, I thought i would throw on some more undies that we have created lately.

 We currently only sell the one style of hot pant but we are going to be bringing in other styles of bottoms as well as different items of clothing shortly.

So, if you have a super comfy shirt that just fits you really well, it would be super sweet if you could drop us a note at hotacrossbuns@gmail.com    and just let us know the name of the company on the tag.

The Bad Kittie hot pants were made for a derby girl and the Come to Mama ones we just made up to try out our new silver matte vinyl.  I think I might steal them.

What we have been up to..

Well Sufferjet and myself have been keeping the heat press hot!!!

Sufferjet has been elbows deep in vinyl. I have been getting hand cramps from promoting.
Here are just a few examples of what we have been doing and I will be posting more cool stuff we have made for some really great people.  If we have made something for you please send us you wearing your hot pants and some information about your company or league and we will be sure to get it up here!!
thanks.

This is a cute pair of hotpants made for Sufferjets daughter Jada.  She came up with her own derby name. 
Printed on a small American Apparel unders in blue.
She is all set for some Jr. Roller Derby.
You are sure to find Jada with these babies on either at our merch booth during games or rounding up hula hoops during half time!

New Place to Buy Skates! Hot Diggity!

This weekend, Toronto, Ontario will be getting its own brick and mortar skate shop!! Sooo effing exciting.
Normally when i want new stuff i have to get it online, normally from Sin City Skates, Roller girl or Rollerbug..  Whom I love all of those girls! Fast shipping, great customer service!  Otherwise I can pick up stuff at different events, normally when im out of the country and I always have to ask myself, do I buy wheels or buy margaritas, margaritas usually win out! HA HA


 But this weekend Cardinal Skate Co. is opening!  This means that when im in Toronto, seeing TORD games and GTAR games, or eating thai food and watching 24 with Joker I can hit the skate shop, smell the wheels, touch the bearings and try on skates!

Cardinal is a subsidiary of Common Ground Shop/RollerBug Skate Co, so it is run by the same people that bring you Roller Bug skates.   I got my second pair of skates, my first pair of roller derby skates, from Rollerbug.  They have stood up really well since i bought them three or more years ago!  Plus they look pretty baddass!!! My skates have gotten more media attention then my face has! HA HA

I had a couple of teammates find these wheels from Queen of the Rink and they couldn't find them in Canada. I contacted  Kandy Barr and she was able to order them in and the girls can go down and pick them up. Word on the street is they are also going to have ATOM wheels there!! ooooo i so wanna try those wheels.

So even though i am poor as eff, i do have a brand new credit card that will hopefully get me some wheels, new pads, and maybe skates, even though i looooves my old ones.  


So if your in Toronto for the weekend or maybe you signed up for the latest TORD Fan Choice Scrimmage, make sure you stop in and talk derby with Kandy Barr at Cardinal!  

See you there!
