servida - Mokay, Jun 5, 2010
Servida because use of the past participle plus Estar must agree with the subject in gender and number - cena is feminine - hence sevida - caza, Jun 5, 2010
I have offered an explanation in case Selwich is wondering why - hope it helps - or maybe it was just a typo! - caza, Jun 5, 2010

I would probably use the Indicative mood present tense (puedo), instead of the Present Subjunctive. No W.E.I.R.D.O phrase in the independent clause. I do the same thing with my DVR. Great answer :) - MattM, Jun 18, 2010
