Overweight – how much inspiration can you bring on a transatlantic flight?

I’m waiting impatiently for a much loved one to come home from the States. First of all, to se him, of course. Secondly, to check out the books in his luggage. I want to know how much inspiration I could find in 10 kilograms (or 22 lbs) of books… I’ve put rather much effort on selecting books to get the most inspiration out of the weight as possible. One of few hardcovers that I ordered is Nicky Epsteins “Knitting over the edge”, because I’m very curios of her books on edgings. Otherwise I mainly chose paperbacks – more books for less weight.

Speaking of books on planes... Passing security in New York, the security staff after the X-ray dived into my bag in search for a BIG solid box, with much resemblance of a bomb. She found the item immediately: a large hardcover book with the titel "Psychoneuroimmunology" on it. Religious fanatic? It's my Bible anyway. ;)
