Bag and Wander is a relatively new subscription box that sends you a box of items great for travel or other on-the-go needs.

This box includes a card detailing the items included. This month's theme is Mix and Mingle.

Scout Books The Cocktail Hour Vodka Pocket Book - Value $5

This book includes cocktail recipes and vodka infusion instructions too!

Copper & Kraft Falling Leaves Candle - Value $7

These candles are made with soy wax and phthalate free fragrances! It's killing me not knowing what this scent reminds me of, but I like it!

bag-and-wander-nov-2015-towel

Nesta Home Pineapple Dish Towel - Value $15

This is going in my hostess gift pile. It will be perfect with a bottle of wine.

Jonathan Alden Small Cheese / Cutting Board - Value $15

This is definitely a small board (6 by 6 inches). It's a beautiful piece though - I'm thinking I'll use it as a trivet instead. That way I will use it more!

bag-and-wander-nov-2015-coasters

Khristian A. Howell Cheers Party Coasters - (5 pack) Value $6.25

(Listed as $10 on the info card, but these are on sale 10 for $12.50).

These are reversible paper coasters. They're probably not something I would pay for on their own, but I'm sure they will come in handy. (And I love gold-anything, so the design of these work for me!)

bag-and-wander-nov-2015-dip

Stonewall Kitchen Artichoke Spinach Dip Mix - Value $4

To make this dip, you combine it with 4 oz softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup sour cream, and 2 tablespoons milk. (AKA - pile on the dairy!)

Verdict: This box has a value of about $52. I think that value is great for this type of box, and I really enjoyed this themed box. I must admit, though, I don't see the connection to travel items this month. Maybe these are good items for traveling to a friend's house for a party? 🙂

What do you think of the November 2015 Bag and Wander Box?

My parents are full time RV’rs and I think I am going to get this subscription for them. They stay at the same park anywhere from 3 to 6 months at a time so a 3 mo. sub should be perfect

I don’t understand the travel theme at all with this sub. I’d be really disappointed if that was why I had subbed to it.

I wish I would have gotten a couple of these for gifts.

I’ve received all of their boxes so far and really enjoy this sub. This month seems like it would make a really nice hostess gift for the holidays.

I would probably like that dip. I have seen dairy-free versions of cream cheese and sour cream at Whole Foods, but have never tried either. I’m a little afraid I wouldn’t like them. Plus they are a lot more expensive than the “real” versions.

Probably the dip would be fine with unsweetened non-dairy yogurt, though.

(I must be hungry. I am clearly fixated on the only food item in the box…)

You can get dairy-free cream cheese and sour cream on the kosher aisle at any major supermarket or at a kosher deli. I haven’t tried them, but my mom says the cream cheese isn’t too bad. They are more expensive than the dairy versions, but if you don’t need too much and have a real problem with dairy, they might be worth it occasionally.

Subscribed since the first box, each month gets better and better, really enjoying this box. I liked that they changed it up this month hoping they continue this.
