Up here in the far north is the home of Santa. You are hoping you can find the mansion and workshop. There are no marks on a map to help you, and no directions have ever been given.

Something catches your eye. Ahead appears to be some twinkling lights, and as you walk closer, you see, yes! There is a tree and a striped pole, and should there be any doubt, there is a sign that reads, North Pole.

'I' is for the icing on the cake as sweet as sugar cane!

'J' is for Jack Frost, either nipping at your toes or making trees beautiful with a coating of rime!

'L' is for fairy lights, that bring cheer to dull winter streets!

'M' is for the mistletoe where everyone gets kissed!

'N' is for the Nativity, the reason for the season!

'X' is for Xmas, when we celebrate with family and friends!
The 'X' comes from the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of the Greek word Christós meaning "anointed, covered in oil"), which became 'Christ' in English.

'Y' is for Yuletide, the time of our Christmas celebrations!
'Yule' derives from an Old English noun geõl. Both geõl and its cousin from Old Norse (jõl) referred to a midwinter pagan festival that took place in December.

'Z' is for zesty gingerbread biscuits, or for lemon zest in the turkey stuffing!

A lovely specimen you are certain to find up north. Green year-round and shelter for squirrels (hopefully uncaffeinated), various birds, and darling moose (meese?) and deer. Often the smaller versions are cut in December to be brought inside and decorated. For some reason people struggle to fit trees indoors that are taller than their houses. Don't ask us why. We do however recommend if you are going this indoor route that you a) check for small rodents living in the boughs and b) remove any snow (unless you live in an igloo or freezer).
