Milk, Protein, Marriage Negotiation, and Triple H

Connect the dots – marriage negotiation, a vegetarian kitchen, milk, protein, and Triple H. I’ll give it a shot.

My kitchen is vegetarian. I’m not vegetarian, my two boys aren’t vegetarian, but my wife is vegetarian. It’s a long story that I’ll save for another day, but we agreed not to store, cook, or serve meat in our house as part of a protracted series of pre-marital negotiations that every couple should be having.

One of the biggest challenges of maintaining a vegetarian kitchen is making sure we are all getting enough protein. Milk has always been part of that equation, but I just recently learned that all that milk my kids have been drinking is giving them an even bigger protein boost than I expected!

As part of the launch event, I got to meet and chat it up with power couple Triple H (aka Paul Michael Levesque) and Stephanie McMahon of WWE fame. We discussed their love of milk, sharing the parenting load, the challenges of raising kids. Some fun takeaways:

Matt with Triple H and Stephanie discussing the need for Matt to increase his protein intake.

• Triple H and Stephanie are both active parents to three daughters. They are both very involved in all aspects of childcare including breakfast choices, school involvement, and social media boundaries
• Milk, as you would expect is a big part of their family’s diet.
• All three daughters are kept entirely out of the WWE limelight
• The couple’s daughters are all young, but future boyfriends should steer clear of the Levesque girls if they know what’s good for them.
