It’s me, Sidney Raz, back with another SWEATER LETTER—because newsletters are cool, but sweaters are wackier. Let’s dive into this week’s “things I wish I knew sooner” and updates. |
The lifehacks!
😮😮Belts Beware
If you don’t know this about me, I don’t like belts. I prefer suspenders. That’s right! One of the reasons I don’t like belts is the constricting feeling of them in the front. “Well get another size” people say to me. I STILL don’t like them! Suspenders just feel better on my body when I’m walking around and holding up my pants. When I was a kid my dad wore suspenders, and he put me in suspenders at a young age. So I can’t go back now.
So belts and I don’t have a good relationship. But when I found this lifehack for belts it swayed me. Every single belt can be used this way in a pinch if you don’t have suspenders handy.
Here’s the trick: loop it on one side
I made a video about it here: Watch it on Instagram!
Let me know what you think about belts vs. suspenders.
😮The Life Hack that Blew My mind this week
For YEARS I’ve put bread like baguettes in the freezer after buying them from the grocery store. After being frozen though it didn’t feel or taste as good when I thawed it out for my pasta night. But NOW we can all rest easy know that there’s a way to save the amazing bread feeling after it’s gone stale or been sitting in the freezer for too long.

On June 5th I’ll be going live to raise money for stomach cancer research! So far I’ve got the Hot Ones hot sauce ready to go and I’m going to get more! Could you reply to this email with spicy food so that I have more ideas? ALSO reply to this email with questions you would like me to answer while eating spicy wings and food.
😫😫Less than 50 days
As I’m writing this it’s 42 days until I have my stomach removed. With each passing day I’m starting to freak out more and more. No matter how many people tell me it’s going to be ok I just can’t believe that this is the situation I’m in. I keep saying to myself “so like, no stomach. NO stomach?” I’m in therapy and it’s helping. It’s insane, just truly insane to think that I just won’t have a stomach. Ok, rant over I think. Thank you for reading while I have a tiny menty b.
✨ Until Next Time…
Go forth and impress your friends with your newfound knowledge! Let me know if there were any spelling errors so I can add them in next weeks #sidspellingerrors.
Thanks for reading!
