:lol: Heh, I just checked their site. That's funny! Maybe the stem is supposed to be an "l"?

I think the footprint of the chocolate is supposed to be the "g," and the strawberry is supposed to be the "l." It's very poorly done, though.

yup. the stem is the "L"

Strawberries are red, stems are green...

You may have noticed today's Google Doodle on our homepage in celebration of romance and good food (something we consider extremely important).
When you look at the logo, you may worry that we forgot our name overnight, skipped a letter, or have decided that "Googe" has a better ring to it. None of the above. I just know that those with true romance and poetry in their soul will see the subtlety immediately. And if you're feeling grouchy today, may I suggest eating a strawberry.
A very happy Valentine's Day to everyone!

As a designer, I know this:
If you have to explain what your design is, your design is not successful.
