I've done a lot of little exercises but I think my first major one was the capstone for my degree. I lived with my parents during college, and they wanted to go on a diet to get healthier.
Home cooking is supposed to be healthier than dining out and eating boxed meals, but they were having a hard time getting nutrition info for a lot of recipes. As my capstone project I created a web app in .NET that would allow a user to put in all the ingredients for a recipe using the HUUUUUGE USDA food database, then it would calculate the nutritional values and pop out an info label that could be saved. It wasn't precise (cooking alters a lot of nutrients) but it worked well enough for a first "big kid" project. It's still sitting on my GitHub.
