Adding “blogroll” and “pages” to my sidebar

This is my sidebar.php code (below). Could anyone help me please? I don’t understand the instructions I find to accomplish adding a “blogroll” and “pages” widget.

There is a blogroll page (in admin) where I can add names to it, but it doesn’t appear when I view the site. In admin, it says my theme is not widget aware when I go to the widgets section.

My site:

http://whengoodmendonothing.com

My sidebar.php code:

<!– begin sidebar –>
<div id=”sidebar”>
<div class=”bulletin”><!– begin search –>
<h5>Search</h5>
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/searchform.php’); ?>
</div><!– end search –>

<div class=”bulletin”><!– begin archies –>
<h5>Archives</h5>

<?php wp_get_archives(‘type=monthly’); ?>

</div>

<div class=”bulletin”><!– begin categories list –>
<h5>Categories</h5>

<?php wp_list_cats(‘sort_column=name&optioncount=1&hierarchical=0’); ?>

</div><!– end categories list –>

</div><!– end sidebar –>
