Low Water Easy Removal Ground Cover

Hello AZlandscaping,

I am in the Phoenix Metro and was looking for options for ground cover that my dog could enjoy.

Ideally it would be low water, but my biggest concern is the ability to remove it in the future. I have about half my yard without landscaping and plan to add hardscaping and likely a pool there in the future, so easy/cheap removal is important for that goal.

From my research, I have determined Bermuda grass is likely too hard to remove. Rye grass would be good, but is winter only. I have looked into using kurapia potentially. It’s a good bit more expensive, but seems like a good option, although I haven’t found anything about its ability to be removed.

The purpose of this is really to give my dog something cooler and more comfortable to walk on than the dirt on that side and the turf and pavers on the other side.

I realize there’s nothing that will probably perfectly match what I’m looking for, but any suggestions for what to do would be great.

Granite Color Advice

Hello Reddit,
At my house we previously had a builder basic “backsplash, which was about 4 inches of the same material as the countertop sat up along the wall. We decided to install a proper backsplash and removed what the builder had. After having someone start work for the backsplash we noticed that where that edge was before was a different color (and I have to scrape the caulk off too)

The countertops overall are about 2 years old and this is in Arizona with a west facing kitchen that gets plenty of natural light.

Is there any way to even out the color? Do I need to put a sealant or something? Will it just even out over time? Will it always look like this?

Electrolux Dryer Makes Rattling Noise

This is an Electrolux elfe7637at0 which I bought in 2024. When I start it up it makes this rattling noise which gets quieter as the machine runs. To be honest I think it might have always done it and I just never had it checked out. I’m pretty sure it’s under warranty so if it’s not normal I guess I should call out a repair tech.
