Renegade Reference Writer

I'm mailing 2 out of 3 sets of recommendation letters tomorrow. My last recommender is the renegade. I should have known when she asked me when's the latest she could return them to me. Did I ever ask her when's the latest I could return an assignment to her? LOL Like, "I know you said this is the due date but really, what's the latest I can actually turn this bad boy in?"

I've gifted the 2 recommenders who've completed their letters. I wonder if word getting back to her about the gifts will make her get a move on so she can get her thoughtful gift. To gift her now before she finishes the letters would seem like bribery. Maybe I should gift her now.
