Here is one source for water kefir grains- I eat/drink a lot of fermented foods- so those are my personal favorites- coconut water kefir is my absolute favorite.....I also make a lot of saurkraut, kimchi too-

Raw soups I blend are another favorite although I consume those in the warmer months when wonderful seasonal fruits and vegetables are available at farmer's market-
I'd rate an heirloom tomato bisque as an all around favorite soup but there are many.....
To make take 6 large heirloom tomatoes
juice of one half lime or more to taste
pinch of cumin
some top quality raw olive oil such as Bariani brand
and salt to taste if you use salt (I use various salts)

Blend tomatoes in a food processor, add cumin , salt if using and lime juice.
Then add oil to make a bisque like texture- not too much- some of those raw soups call for 1/2 to one cup full of olive oil
Garnish with chopped fresh basil and serve.
