Keep Calm and . . .

Way back in February I posted about the British WWII Keep Calm and Carry On poster after seeing it in a photo spread in Domino Magazine (oh how I still miss that magazine!!). Sunday's New York Times Magazine had an article about all the various "re-imaginations" of the classic poster. My favorite is this one, available in all sorts of colors on Etsy:

Wouldn't this be so fun in a kitchen? Especially this black and white version on a wooden plaque:


I can picture it in an industrial-chic kitchen with gleaming stainless steel appliances and marble countertops. And it would make a great gift for an avid baker.
