Mama’s Pasta Salad

I know this isn’t exactly pasta salad weather, but I figured I’d post this anyways since I made it for J’s birthday party.  You can mix it with a candy cane or use pumpkin pasta to make it season appropriate.
You know I’m kidding, right?
Moving right along.
No exact measurements. It’s not a cake. You won’t ruin it, I promise. 
Mama’s Pasta Salad
1 package of the pasta shape of your choice. Cook according to package’s directions. Rinse with cold water.
1 can black olives, sliced
1 or 2 carrots, peeled and shredded
1/2 cup to 1 cup sliced green onion
1 red or yellow bell pepper, diced
2 handfuls of cherry tomatoes, quartered  I now declare “handful” an official form of measurement on this blog.
1 cup diced pickles
1 part plain yogurt
1 and a half parts mayonnaise
A squirt of mustard
Salt and pepper to taste (optional)

Mix thoroughly. Chill. Done.
