freezing yogurt

Yes. Plus, expiration dates on milk are pretty arbitrary, so don't go by that. If the milk tastes fine, drink it. If it's off, toss it. I've had milk go bad long before the expiration date (probably due to improper handling) and I've had it last well past the date (particularly if it's skim) as well.

But yes, turning milk into yogurt will make it last longer than if you left it as milk.

thanks! and aside from the obvious mould that grows around the rim of the containers, how do you tell if yogurt's gone bad or should be thrown out?

I've been having some issues with my refrigerator lately, and sometimes my yogurts become frozen if they are kept on a certain side of the fridge. I actually thought it was pretty tasty that way...almost like ice cream. However, if you do let it thaw completely...the consistency does tend to "thin out" a little. Best to eat it while it's still slightly frozen, IMO.

I have no idea. If our yogurt gets mold, I scrape it off and feed the yogurt to the chickens (which they go crazy for!). Though really, the only time I see mold is if a container gets hidden and forgotten...it rarely lasts long enough to go bad in our house.
