While Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have always been an über-private couple, the blond beauty has recently become a bit more candid when it comes to the topic of her hunky hubby, following the launch of her lifestyle website Preserve.

In a new interview with Marie Claire magazine, the 26-year-old stunner opens up about her latest business venture in addition to dishing on her nearly two-year marriage to The Proposal star (spoiler alert: she can't wait to have children).

"We've never gone a week without seeing each other," the erstwhile Gossip Girl star tells the mag of her relationship with the 37-year-old stud. "There's no major decision that I make without him. The best part is when we turn off our phones and just talk and hang out. He's my best, best friend. What do you do with your best friend? You do nothing."

During the interview, Lively also reiterated her desire to have children—Ryan told Details magazine last year that the two would "love to have a big family"—and it seems that the same still holds true with Blake.

"I gotta get started," the Age of Adaline star, who has admitted to wanting 30 kids, confessed. "If I could spit out a litter of kids, I would."

Next month, the lovebirds will be celebrating second wedding anniversary (the two tied the knot in September 2012 in a top-secret ceremony in South Carolina) but don't expect the celebrity couple to exchange lavish gifts.

"Normally, we make something for each other," Lively recently told E! News. "Because that's something that lasts and isn't something you just found and bought in a store."

Meanwhile, the Savages star is focusing on her lifestyle website—in which her hubby is heavily involved—and the project has proven to be a perfect fit for Blake.

"I went straight from high school to Gossip Girl, and both were very structured, scheduled environments, so I never had freedom to explore and carve my own path," she explained. "When I finished my show, I wanted to take a break from acting and try what I would have tried if I hadn't acted, and that was this."

The self-professed foodie, who enjoys cooking in her downtime, also told E! News that "it's nice to have a partner in everything." As for what kind of dish Lively loves to whip up for her other half?

"Honestly, all he wants to eat is hot-fudge sundaes," she confessed.

If only that was his secret recipe to those famous six-pack abs.
