MenuStrip MouseEnter and MouseLeave Events

Question

I am a relative newcomer to .Net and have what I hope to be a simple question regarding the MenuStrip and the MouseEnter and MouseLeave events. 

The Situation:
I have a main app form that has a menuStrip with toolStripItems representing the various menus for the main form.  The form also has a StatusStrip with a label on it.

The Goal:
Use the menuStrip MouseEnter and MouseLeave events to do the following:
1) Determine which ToolStripItem the mouse is over (if any).
2) Update the statusStrip label with a message appropriate to the menu that the mouse is over.

Can someone please help?  I have tried all that I can think off and am left with the prospect of each Menu having its own MouseEnter and MouseLeave event handler.  I am sure that there has to be a better way.  Thanks.
