Cool potatoes completely and peel (You can also leave them un-peeled if you prefer.)
Place cooled potatoes in large bowl. Add celery, celery seed, onion and olives. Toss and let sit for 20 minutes to allow the potatoes to soak up the flavor.
While the potatoes are soaking up the flavor, in a separate bowl, mix Miracle Whip, Mayonnaise and Mustard.
Toss the potato mixture with half of the dressing. Slowly incorporate the dressing until it’s the desired consistency.
Chop the hard -boiled eggs into bit size pieces. Gently incorporate into potato mixture. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

This potato salad is best when made the day before you need to allow the flavors to really mix.
