Twine: Click/link only affects 1 instance at a time..problem

Let’s say I have a link for a “cookie” that when you click it, it says “you pick up a cookie!”, I want it to also say at the bottom or at the top of the screen (or somewhere unrelated) “+1 food item!”.
I tried it with the click command, but it only seems to affect a single occurence at a time.
Help?
