A pregnant Blake Lively is preparing for her baby's arrival by taking on cooking lessons from a top chef. Meanwhile, "Gossip Girl" co-star Ed Westwick shared his thoughts on Ryan Reynold's wife.

The founder of lifestyle website, Preserve, posted on Instagram a photo of herself looking on as chef Hung Huynh prepares a meal.

"The expectant mother wrapped her big baby bump in a cute apron while preparing their meal," said E! News. "Standing over a pot of boiling water, Huynh and his sous chef are surrounded by tons of kitchenware, including a USA Cutting Board, which can be purchased on Preserve for $55."

The image, as shown below, was captioned by the very pregnant Blake Lively: "Nothing better (or tastier) than an evening spent with friends who share your passion. What you don't see is the epic foodie dice challenge which took place afterward!" 

But the former "Gosip Girl" couldn't help but promote the products that can be purchased from Preserve, as she added: "Such a great night @chefhunghuynh. Thank you! And thank you to the Preserve artisans who supplied our beautiful tools! Who can spot them? (Hint: 4 visible)."

It seems Ryan Reynold's wife is immune to all the troubles associated with pregnancy as she admitted to Vogue magazine recently that she doesn't exercise to keep off the excess weight.

"I'm always on the go. I don't need to have a [trainer] or pay attention to what I eat. I can't start my day without a cup of hot milk chocolate or finish without crunching a few dark chocolate squares. It's good for my morale," she added.

Meanwhile, "Gossip Girl" cast Ed Westwick shared to Us Weekly, as shared by Christian Today, how the pregnant Blake Lively is doing. "She's really well. I think she's handling it all great. She's rocking it. She's got it under control," he said.
