Kinda Amish Macaroni Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups mayonnaise
    1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
    1/2 cup sugar
    2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard (no other kind will taste right!)
    1 lb elbow macaroni
    1/2 cup celery, chopped fine
    1/2 cup carrot, chopped fine
    1/4 cup onion, chopped fine
    8 -10 hardboiled egg, diced (big chunks are okay by me, but chop them small if you like)
    paprika or parsley (optional)
Preparation
    Combine mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and mustard; Chill in refrigerator until needed.
    Cook macaroni as directed on package, just until tender; drain and cool.
    Combine macaroni with celery, carrots, onions and eggs.
    Pour mayonnaise mixture over all and stir to mix well.
    Refrigerate overnight in tightly sealed container.
    It may seem a bit wet at first, but after it chills overnight, it's just right.
    There's no salt in this recipe-- if you must, add 1/2 teaspoon to the mayonnaise mixture.
    We're not sodium restricted and we like it just fine without.
