When do you normally use the phrase "My pleasure''?

Is it OK to say,''Thanks. My pleasure'' to someone who has invited you to have dinner at their house?

"It would be a pleasure to come"  "It really is a pleasure having dinner with you"

But you usually only use "My pleasure" instead of "Your Welcome", after someone has thanked you for doing something.
The end isn't "nigh".  We are already in it, knee-high!

Thanks Neal. So, I correctly informed my students that ''Thanks. My pleasure.'' cannot go together. That line was part of a conversation I taught them couple weeks ago.
