Very glad to hear you are OK, and no more harm done than a little soot.

In the UK it is common to have a fire blanket in the kitchen for exactly this problem. It is just a flameproof blanket (fibreglass, I think) which you chuck over the fire and starve it of air. Mine have sat in kitchens for years and never been used - but they do no harm, just get dusty.

One thing to remember is, once used, leave for half an hour until all is cool.
