I think that the stalk of the strawberry is actually meant to be the 'L'.

Consider that the 'L' of Google's logo is green, and the stalk is green.

If you squint, you can kind of see it... but it's really not that great when it comes to holiday logos. :>

Tell your "goog friend" (is that some sort of deviant thing? :) that it is teh lameness, and it definitely says "Googe", regardless of what they intended. :)
