IWhat to watch for

Quedar is regular in the preterite: quedé, quedaste, quedó, quedamos, quedasteis, quedaron. Quedamos is identical in the present and the preterite, so the context decides between we're meeting and we met or agreed.

The preterite reports arrangements (quedamos en vernos el lunes), results (el pastel quedó buenísimo, the cake turned out delicious), impressions (quedé fatal con mi jefe) and what was left over (no quedó nada).
