Scalloped Potato Gratin

It's almost that crazy Hallmark time of year, Valentine's Day.  Despite your relationship status, isn't it time to treat someone you love (be it your sweetie or yourself) to a decadent dinner?  I decided to make a nice steak dinner for my sweetie this week, since it marked five years that we met in the shampoo aisle.  Steak is delicious by itself but everyone knows when going to a steakhouse, the real treat of a steak dinner is the sides.  But what could I make besides a boring baked potato or side of rice?  I instantly had a craving for a creamy, cheesy potato dish.  I scoured the Internet and found a simple and decadent recipe for scalloped potatoes gratin.  Thank you Tyler Florence for such a simple, easy and beyond delicious side to compliment this steak dinner.   It's not exactly a dieter's dish, but when you're having a steak dinner, it's time to splurge.  Save up the calories because this is one dinner that any Valentine would love to be treated t
