installing WP plugins on another website

I’m creating a website for a friend. I want to have a blog associated it but it will not be the main page. Here is what I would like to do but only need help with the first part at this point.

1) Is there a way to have the blog titles show up on the html based home page?

2) I need to make the blog match the page but I’m not there yet. If you have suggestions or a link to a tutorial please let me know.

I’ve been using WP and have been looking for Plugins but the ones I’ve found seem only to be for the WP blog itself.

Any help would be appreciated either here or referring to a “how-to” section.

Thanks!
