新一年,慢慢來也很好 | It's Okay to Slow Down

Published: Jan 7, 2026 by bonnie.yveskitchen · This post may contain affiliate links · Leave a Comment

It's OKAY to Slow Down

親愛的朋友,

It's Okay to Slow Down ^^

新的一年,先跟你說一句:新年快樂 💛

一月份,總是充滿計劃與希望。我想瘦一點、健康一點、拖延症減少一點(笑)。

但冬天的節奏總是比較慢——尤其在蘇格蘭,差不多一年有十個月都像冬天。生活未必能完全照著計劃走,其實也不用太在意。

​

只要多花一點時間在廚房,為自己和家人煮一頓簡單、健康的家常菜,已經是對生活最好的投資。

很感謝這些年能與你們一起成長。即使大家散落在世界不同角落,

對「家的味道」的追求,始終不變。

也請原諒我對社交媒體一向慢熱。但愛煮、愛分享的心,始終如一。

希望你也會喜歡這片慢慢累積的美食天地。

如果你有喜歡的食譜或文章,不妨留個言,讓我知道你的到訪,好嗎?^^

祝你 2026 年 心想事成,幸福滿滿

也記得,好好吃飯。

~ ~ ~

Wishing you a very happy New Year 💛

January often comes with many plans and expectations.

But winter moves slowly — and life doesn’t always follow a schedule.

That’s okay.

Spending a little more time in the kitchen, cooking simple and nourishing meals, is one of the best ways to care for yourself and those you love.

Thank you for growing with me over the years.Wherever you are in the world, our love for the taste of home remains the same.

Wishing you a warm, gentle and fulfilling 2026.

And most of all — don’t forget to eat well.

Bonnie

A little spicy surprise at the end. 😋 seaweed men A little spicy surprise at the end. 😋

seaweed mentaiko tamagoyaki @smoked_tamago 

The first bite was all about the silky egg and delicate aroma of seaweed. Soft, comforting, and beautifully balanced.

Just when I thought the story had ended, the mentaiko quietly made its appearance — bringing a gentle burst of umami and a hint of spice.

It didn’t steal the spotlight from the egg.

Instead, it completed the whole experience.

Simple ingredients often reveal the most skill.

No wonder this tamagoyaki was crowned Scotland’s Street Food Champion 2025 🏆

Even my Japanese friend approved. 😋

Some dishes don’t need to be complicated.

So proud of you, Hongkonger😊

They just need to do the simple things exceptionally well.
George Michael taught me the importance of being t George Michael taught me the importance of being true to yourself and listening to your own heart.

Growing up in Hong Kong, while many children around me were listening to Cantopop, an eight-year-old girl was already humming Careless Whisper. I would spend my pocket money on cassette tapes and read the lyric sheets over and over again, looking up words in the dictionary. My dream was simple: one day, I wanted to meet him.

Decades later, that little girl is now living in the UK. Life has taken me further than I could ever have imagined, yet sadly I never got the chance to meet him.

Perhaps that is George Michael’s greatest legacy for me. His music crossed cultures, languages and generations, and accompanied me through different chapters of my life. He showed me that following your own path is not always the easiest choice, but it is the most honest one. #georgemichael #lastchristmas #tonightthemusicseemssoloud

On my way home, I spotted Malay Laksa and simply c On my way home, I spotted Malay Laksa and simply couldn’t resist bringing a bowl home 😍

The lovely owners packed everything separately — broth and toppings apart, while the tofu puffs were left soaking in the soup to absorb all that delicious flavour.

Takeaway dishes can sometimes lose a little magic, but so much thought has gone into the details here that it still scored top marks at home.

Even my notoriously picky husband couldn’t stop praising the pork belly and the rich, comforting broth 😍

And for those who don’t eat meat, there are vegetarian options too 🌱

@malay_laksa Edinburgh’s laksa champion, without a doubt. Thank you for bringing such wonderful food to our city 💕
