Yep, I have seen all of this except the pizza. We once received a popcorn tin (those huge ones that you see at Christmas) and a sister innocently opened it only to find some rushee's/PNM's face staring right back at her, causing her to let out a scream! Sadly, the PNMs were the innocent ones who became household jokes due to some of the more outrageous "gifts."
It is not just individuals who do this. In my day the alumnae associations (especially Houston and Dallas) were doing this too.
To the OP- I echo what was said earlier. If you really, really, really feel that this is the right thing to do, then go with cookies. Don't do anything that would mortify/embarass your neice. Be prepared for the possibility
that your neice may be released/
Finally, ensure that you are not putting additional pressure on the neice by hoping/expecting that she will pledge your organization. Recruitment is hard enough. Please let her know in no uncertain terms that she can map her own course. This will be especially comforting if she happens to be released from your group.
