Widgets for category menus on home page???
 
I'd really like to add category menus like thehappyhousewife.com has on the bottom half of her page, (the boxes with recent posts and cute headers) with a slider above.

She is using a customized Genesis child theme, but I'm trying to figure out if I can do something similar with Atahualpa. I know how to add a slider, but I'm stumped with the category sections.

Any idea how I can do this?

Widgets in sidebars on a static page? If so, how do I hide the center column and can I put the slider in a widget? Add in widget areas into the center column? Or is this going to be way too big of a PITA to do?

My site is thebizymommy.com if you'd like to get a look at what I'm working with. I'd like to keep my two right sidebars on the home page if at all possible.

Thanks for your help!

BTW, I did poke around with juggledad's multi column/custom query page template, but couldn't get that to work either. But I am not really familiar with custom queries, so it could just be that I'm going about it all wrong.
