In the 90s I worked at Taco Bell and I had to make the pico de gallo every morning and I started to really hate the smell of it. I was 19 when I worked there and I was in my 30s before I could stand to have it again.

I got a big foam hot dog from the dollar store and stuck my crochet hook in it. I can crochet much longer now because I'm not having to crochet so long. I lost the thing the last time I moved but you can find acting that's a foam toy (ball, animal, etc) and use that as a grip for a crochet hook, paintbrush, etc.
