Were taking a look at weekend outlook where we are going to see some heavier rain and also some snow showers in the Pacific Northwest. The highest elevations. Saturday,t england. We could see heavy rain and gusty winds across Eastern Maine with some snowossible in the higher elevations. Here is what you can expect if you are traveling on sunday. We could see some stronger storms, especially through the midwest. That would be heavy rain. If youre traveling along i35, you could run into some delays because of the heavier rain. The rain also looks heavy out in the Pacific Northwest with some more mountain snow. That means mountain passes will have an issue. In the southeast and up and down that i95 corridor, if you are aokay. We should see lots of sunshine, temperatures comfortable, too, in the 40s and 50s. Saturday at 4 00 p. M. Is one of the worst times to be on the road. Keep that in mind. You might want to wait until okay. Were checking off bucket lists here. It was get this box checked by today show host. I guess i count. Right . Yeah awesome thank you so much. All right, dylan. Powerful women and her latest role certainly is no exception. The new thriller, miss sloan, she plays a ruthless washington lobbyist. At the center of the story is a controversial gun safety bill. Elizabeth sloan will go to any length to outsmart her foes. Well being is about foresight. About anticipating your opponents moves. And dividing counter measures. Of the opposition. And plays her trump card just after they play theirs. Jessica chastain, good morning. Were mesmerized. Good goosebumps. Thanks so Elizabeth Sloan described by one viewer as beautiful but scary. Good. Well, Elizabeth Sloan is a very she gets brought over to work on a bipartisan gun bill. You know, of course, everyone talk about the election at thanksgiving dinner yesterday. Perhaps some survived, some did not. What a perfect timing. I think it is a great thing. As an actress you dont get very many roles where you play a female character or even see in the movies that you have a female character perfectionist and so flawed. You see men play these roles all the time but i think in our Society Women arent necessarily brought into that area. I think it is good to have Elizabeth Sloan there in the world. You did some research as you always do for a character in d. C. Sort of looking at the world of lobbying. We know the reputation of lobbyists. Sort of mercenaries and cynical a devious. No. I met with some incredible women. I went to d. C. Well, first, i Jack Abramoffs book. Thats an interesting place to start. How could someone go wrong here . Then i researched the most successful lobbyist in d. C. And i went there and met with 11 women. What really struck me about them was how powerful they were, even almost before they entered the room. 7 out of the 11 women were wearing black nail polish. They had like they really carried this energy with them to contend with what they were doing because i found out less than 10 of i think they you have to really show up. Especially in d. C. I mean it is a tough town as we know. I can imagine when the odds and numbers are against you as it is with gender, women in d. C. And this character. It is fascinating. D. C. Definitely i think we all know it is a bit of a boys club. When you have the debates, one of the things Hillary Clinton was criticized for was being overprepared in the first debate. Ive never heard anyone say that overprepared. Im overprepared for things and Elizabeth Sloan is, too. It is clear you prepared for this one. A lot of people are mentioning the word oscar with this one. When people see movie, theyll know why. Thank you so much. Miss sloan opens in theaters today.

This is one of these shows, its set about 50 years in the future but everything that you are talking about in the show seems pretty plausible now in probably is going to be before that. Very probable. I think unless we change our ways drastically, thats where were headed. That was ominous. So was it like to sit down with 8yearold dennis at the dinner table with his voice of out. Wouldnt that have been great . 8 years old you know, im not eating my green beans. This broccoli has to go. Whatever you want. When did your voice change . I think it was junior high. You just woke up like this . Well, two sisters. You are such a voice of authority. Are you actually the voice of meet the press on sunday. Yes. Do you have a desire to do a light romantic comedy . Well, thats funny you should mention that. Two of my favorite roles have romantic dramas. Whats your favorite romantic movie . Love field and far from heaven. Though i loved playing action. I love playing a julian, of course. But you would do both. Your versatility is incredible. Well, thank you. Your voice puts you in a scary category but as you watch the show, youll see just howom this guy turns nice . I wouldnt say nice. Ill say this about julian. Theres a red zone and there is a green zone. If he had his druthers, he would live outside both of them. Okay. Thats much like how you live your life. Yes. The shows got a pretty good pedigree. Comes from ben affleck and matt damon. When you see that, does that give you a certain level of comfort as an actor that you know that this is going to be something thats going to be well done . Yes. Yes. Through their work. Met ben once before, met matt once before but not enough to sit down and shoot the stuff with them. But the fact of their bodies of work suggests to me that this was going to be something really good, that they werent going to pull back. I said, i have to be a part of this. It does only take place 50 years in the future but the technology, selfdriving cars, the computers built in to tables, hope does appear . You know, im one of those people, im old school. I still have a dial phone. My grandmothers. Mine, too. It works. Tom hanks gave me one. Name dropper. Sorry. Did somebody pick that up . We cant let you get away without showing this quick clip how about we go inside so i can take down your report . Were not even sure burglars have left yet. Its been an lour. You really think hes hanging around in there taking a bubble bath . Who said you cant do comedy there you are. Your voice was a little bit higher then. Sometimes i can get up in the register. Is this really your voice . Yes, it is. Thank you so much. Wednesday, november 30th, at 10 00, 9 00 central, on our Sister Network scifi. Up next, open up your fridge. Pull out the leftovers.

Grab your turkey, sweet potato casserole. Well create a couple brandnew dishes with help of our friend at this point i need my jaw wired shut ive eaten so much. Were keeping going. This is the good thing. Both of these recipes are super simple. Weve got turkey buffalo dip. Fantastic. We have sour cream, buffalo sauce, colby cheese, ranch dressing and our fantastic turkey from yesterday. This is a slow cooker which is great for football. Honestly, i dont know about you couch. What do you got in there already . Colby jack, cream cheese, now were adding our buffalo sauce. And then a little bit of ranch. Then were going to take this, mix it really, really well and turn this puppy on and let it go. Elizabeth, is the buffalo sauce from a jar . It is. You can buy this at any Grocery Store. Could not be any easier. You can make your own but why would you . The other thing is what i love is the y cheese bleu cheese as well. If you didnt want to do colby jack. How long could you keep this in the slow cooker . I would say about three hours. It wont last that long. Exactly. Then just turn it to warm and youve got it all day long. All day. It is so good isnt it good . The other thing, we even made sliders with this one time. Took great little buns, filled it and then had those as well. The other thing that i am so excited about is sweet potato casserole. I dont know about yall, but literally it is in my refrigerator right now. It still halls the spoon in it because every time i walk by the refrigerator, i got tired of washing spoons. Were going to make a sweet potato biscuit. It is actually out of this world. Use your Sweet Potatoes even if theyve got marshmallows on them. Heres our grid. We have our bake salt, butter, sweet potato, milk, cranberry sauce. Does it matter what kind of flour you use. Its got to be an allpurpose flour. We dont want selfrising for this. Anything a really light flour works beautifully for biscuits. Were going to have our sweet potato casserole. I hate to see it go, al. Now we have our cubed butter. Make sure that it is really, really cold. Does it have to be cold . Yeah. Ill tell you why. Almost frozen. Once those little baby pockets of butter, youve got players of flour. Once it melts it disappears. Thats what makes our flakes. Do you see what im saying . Science same thing for a pie crust. Mix this together, dont overmix it. Then start adding our milk. Once we get it kind of mixed in whole we may not need all of this. You just try and judge it for yourself. Whats tconsistency . We want it to all come together but we dont want to overmix it because then well have a tough biscuit. Nobody likes a tough biscuit. We have it all rolled out here. One of our secrets, dont when you press it down its our we want to turn this. We want to turn it. Dont turn . Why not . What happens is if you turn it, it locks the sides of this and it will not rise beautifully. Chef secret. Isnt that nice . I could do this all day long. Im going to let you do it though. In all my years of doing cookies i even bake biscuits together side by side just to see. I twisted one and i did the other because i didnt believe, and it did make all the difference in the world. You like parchment paper. Absolutely. I just think it is really easy. Once you are do away. You dont have to wash your pan. At this point im exhausted, tired of cooking, im over it. But by making these few Little Things it keeps the family going over the weekend. What i like about both of them is they dont taste like thanksgiving. So it is a change of pace. Mix your cranberry sauce, mix with just a little bit of Room Temperature butter. Oh, honey, thank you. Happy holidays. This dip was amazing. All gone. I appreciate it. Recipes are at today. Com food. Were back in a moment. But first, this is today on nbc. Ine a world where the holidays are about joy again. Where days are filled with magic instead of madness. At t. J.
