上下文背景是一位电影明星的访谈：
I just try to live in the moment. To keep an open mind and heart. To do good work, and treat others with kindness and compassion. I think if I can manage that, then everything else is just gravy. Or frosting. Whatever tastes better at that particular moment!
这最后一句话“I think if I can manage that, then everything else is just gravy. Or frosting. Whatever tastes better at that particular moment!”该怎么理解？谢谢大家指点！

锦上添花
Gravy 肉汁
Gravy is a sauce, made often from the juices that run naturally from meat or vegetables during cooking. In North America the term can refer to a wider variety of sauces. Wikipedia
frosting 糖霜
in the United States, is a sweet often creamy glaze made of sugar with a liquid, such as water or milk, that is often enriched with ingredients such as butter, egg whites, cream cheese, or flavorings. Wikipedia
肉汁和糖霜一个加在主菜上，另一个加在甜点上，都是为了增加风味的，不是食物主体。
这段是说做人根本的是要活在当下、开放心胸、做好工作，关爱他人。只要能做到这些，其它的事都是细微末节，锦上添花，就像肉汁和糖霜，都是用来添加风味的，选哪个只不过取决于当时那种尝起来更对味。
