Call for deliciousness! (PLEASE!)

So, brilliant friends...

What is your favorite recipe to make at home?
The thing that is so delicious and reliably wonderful that you're always excited when you're planning to make it? The go-to recipe for company coming over, or a nice night in? Yummy delicious fall comfort foods? 

Tell me tell me now and please paste the actual recipe in the comments here (rather than a link). I need some new stuff to make and want this to be an awesome post full of great ideas.

Bonus points if it uses easy-to-find, reasonably priced ingredients.

More than one is okay. NOM.

I'll post my Broccoli Shrimp Pasta Alfredo and Cheesy Chicken Corn Chowder in the comments below because they're both easy to make and delicious. Also my easier knocked-down version of Mark Bittman's No-Knead Bread because it's always good with either of those.

Project: Wool Cross-Body Tote Bag

Yesterday I was lamenting how I don't own a cross-body bag large enough to hold my books, camera, etc. I looked online but everything I liked was expensive so I decided to try making one.
