Celebrating the incredible Ben today!! ☺️👏🏼
Ben is currently training hard as he is participating in a half marathon in NZ 🇦🇺✈️🏃🏼‍♂️🏃🏼‍♂️🏃🏼‍♂️🏃🏼‍♂️🏃🏼‍♂️🏃🏼‍♂️🏃🏼‍♂️ in November 🤗 Not long now till he jets off 👋 So today we focused on making healthy snacks to have after he trains or a sneaky treat during the day !! Sadly for Ben, he had to tolerate how Yvette cooks without a recipe and ‘throw it all together’ 😩😂 Well, after the first taste test, we both agreed today was a success 🥣🤪 Great job today chef 🤩
