  Hi Inge, 
  You just invited Richard for diiner. 
  The english 'Be my guest,' meaning 'you are welcome,' while literally translating to ' Seien Sie mein Gast', has a totally different meaning in German. If you want to stick to German, you could use 'Bitte schön' or "Bitte, bitte' or 'Gerne' or 'Gern geschehen.'
